    A little history...

    The Terrapin Nesting project started on Long Beach Island, New Jersey, founded by Kathy Lacey in 2011. Over the years, Kathy has built a strong foundation of volunteers and awareness, along with saving and releasing upwards of 10,000 diamondback terrapins into Barnegat Bay. 

    ​

    Now, we have expanded the TNP to historical Leeds Point New Jersey, home of the Jersey Devil, and to many diamondback terrapins in dire need of conservation efforts.
