<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">WHOI Sea Grant and the Cape Cod Cooperative Extension are providing a series of dune protection signs for free to towns and nonprofits in Massachusetts. These signs encourage pedestrians
to stay on designated paths while educating them about the benefits of a well vegetated dune, hopefully preventing uninformed beachgoers from damaging fragile coastal resources.</span>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The artwork on these signs was created by students across Massachusetts as part of a 2022 WHOI Sea Grant-sponsored art contest. There are four designs to choose from in the attached
PDF. These signs are printed on aluminum and should last for several years. A plywood backer should not be needed. Just contact me at
