October 22, 2010 - 2nd Annual Go Blue Awards Luncheon

The 2nd Annual Go Blue Awards Luncheon will recognize businesses, non-profits, and individuals who have promoted, implemented, or contributed to a "Blue" lifestyle of marine conservation in South Florida.

Awards will be given to those who are leading the way in raising awareness and have made significant contributions to improve and protect South Florida's oceans, beaches and wildlife. The nominees this year were determined by a distinguished panel of experts in marine conservation and previous award recipients:
Greg Marshall- National Geographic

Gary Adkison- Director, U.S. Shark Foundation
James Harvey- Guy Harvey Foundation

Four categories will be presented: The Individuals, "Blue Ambassador of the Year" & "Blue Friend of the Year"; The Business, "Blue Business of the Year"; and the “Eleanor Fletcher Award”, which is a lifetime achievement award for an exemplary conservation contribution. The recipient of the awards will be announced at the 2nd Annual Go Blue Awards Luncheon at PGA National Resort & Spa on October 22nd. It is our goal to reward and recognize those individuals, businesses and non-profits who have contributed to a "Blue" lifestyle of marine conservation and we are proud to recognize and reward those working so hard to conserve our precious waters, oceans and marine life.

This year’s special guest speaker is Brian Skerry, photojournalist from National Geographic Magazine. Glenn Glazer, Meteorologist from WPTV News Channel 5 will be the event emcee for the second year.
