New York Marine Rescue Center
The New York Marine Rescue Center is a rescue and rehabilitation organization that promotes marine conservation.
THEIR MISSION
To preserve and protect the marine environment through conservation efforts including rescue, rehabilitation, education and research. They are the primary responders for sick or injured seals, sea turtles, dolphins, porpoises and small toothed whales, and maintain the only marine mammal and sea turtle rehabilitation center in New York State.
OUR SPONSORSHIP
For more than a decade, Canon U.S.A., Inc. has served as the flagship sponsor of the New York Marine Rescue Center (NYMRC) in Riverhead.
Research efforts are supported through the use of Canon products—including digital SLRs, lenses, and color laser printers—which help monitor seal and sea turtle populations in the waters surrounding Long Island. Through its sponsorship with Canon, NYMRC is also able to satellite-tag and track rehabilitated sea turtles and seals. These tags collect key data such as time, date, location, water temperature, and, in some cases, dive-depth information.
Families attending the event received custom marine life coloring books, which were printed on the Canon imagePRESS V1000 digital press.
Canon U.S.A. representatives gather on the beach with Amber, the loggerhead sea turtle, prior to her release.
