Beaufort Experience Weekend a Hit

Beaufort WeekendMore than 80 Annual Fund Gift Club members and their families gathered at the Duke Marine Lab this summer for the third annual Beaufort Experience Weekend at the end of July.

Guests examined beach erosion on Cape Lookout with Brad Murray, assistant professor of geomorphology and coastal processes, discussed the life cycle of blue crabs with student Bronwyn Llewellyn on Carrot Island, and received an update on the latest sea turtle research from Larry Crowder, Stephen Toth Professor of Marine Biology. Children enjoyed a “Friends of Nemo” tour guided by Jessica Maher CEM’03 and marine arts, crafts and literature led by Judy Crowder. The next Beaufort Experience Weekend for Nicholas School Gift Club members will be July 23-25, 2004.
