Snooty Memorial Open House rescheduled

The Snooty Memorial Open House, originally scheduled for Sept. 10th, was postponed due to hurricane Irma.

It is now scheduled for Sunday, September 24, 2017 from noon to 5 p.m. The South Florida Museum will host a special day of remembrance for Snooty. (Admission is free.)

“The Snooty Memorial Open House will pay tribute to Snooty’s legacy, while we celebrate his remarkable life and all that he has brought to the Museum and the world throughout his record-breaking 69 years,” said Brynne Anne Besio, Museum CEO.

This daylong celebration of Snooty’s life will include a visual tribute to Snooty that will be shown in the Museum’s Bishop Planetarium, opportunities for visitors to help create memorial projects honoring Snooty as well as visit the Parker Manatee Aquarium to learn more about Snooty’s true legacy: the Museum’s Manatee Rehabilitation Program.
