The students will spend their days traveling to different locations around the Chesapeake Bay. They will be seeing many different areas of Maryland while they are in the field. Stops often include Crisfield (at one time dubbed the “crab capital of the world”), Wye Island, Point Lookout, and Tangier Island. While on the boat, the students will be involved in classes relating to the Bay and the many issues surrounding this natural treasure. They will also have the responsibility of assisting with all operations of the boat. They will be responsible for navigating, steering and assuring the safety of everyone onboard, as well as maintaining the boat through daily tasks including deck washes. Due to onboard space limitations, students will spend their evenings camping on shore. Camp facilities include youth group sites in State Parks, fields at colleges, and yards at waterfront restaurants/marinas. The students are responsible for setting up camp each evening, helping to prepare their meal
