Cumberland Island

While Gamage stays in Fernandina for the week getting some much needed maintenance, our students will be on Cumberland Island working on a service project with the National Park Service. Cumberland, Georgia's largest barrier island, is one of the nation's most beautiful and unsung national Seashores. We'll be working on trail and exhibit maintenance while also studying the island's ecology and history. We'll also have some time to roam around her beaches looking for shells and fossilized shark's teeth and walk her trails hoping to sight feral horses, wild turkeys, pigs and armadillos. We'll board Gamage once again on Friday, and set sail soon after bound for Charleston, SC.
