Jekyll Island is combining events into a single festival this spring in an effort to generate a bigger crowd and more money.
The Jekyll Island Easter festival will be replaced by a festival April 18 that combines it with the Georgia Sea Turtle Center's Shell-a-bration.
Organizers hope to increase overnight motel stays, reduce the strain on event resources and draw one large crowd instead of two smaller ones.
