Save the Manatees license plates get makeover

The new design for Florida’s Save the Manatees license plates was unveiled today and residents will soon be able to purchase one.

Save the Manatee Club was established in 1981 by Jimmy Buffett and former Florida Governor and U.S. Senator Bob Graham. The Gainesville Sun has the story:

The new plate design was done by Nancy Blauers, a Margaritaville Merchandising Senior Artist who designs “Margaritaville lifestyle” products for Margaritaville stores.
