Fripp Island Audubon Club
Welcome to the Fripp Island Audubon Club Web Page.
Our club goal is to provide the
opportunities for study, observation, and conservation of the
wildlife, flora and fauna of the South Carolina
low country.
All of our programs are open to the public.
The Fripp Island Audubon Club was created
in 1978 by island resident Dixie Winter. Working with the National Audubon
Society, Dixie spent considerable time and effort forming the club and organizing local and
overnight club trips.

Special Chapter Projects;
One of the main projects of our club is to preserve and protect the Loggerhead Sea Turtle
population on our local barrier island. Nature has not given the Loggerhead Turtle very fair odds
when it comes to survival. Our effort is to see that the odds improve. For further information, visit the
Fripp Island Turtle Nest Protection web site for information about our Loggerhead Patrol.
A bird thought extinct for many years has
been sighted and
documented in Arkansas.
