SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Honoring the "Mighty Eighth" Air Force
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit exploring the heroic history of the Eighth Air Force\, known as The Mighty Eighth. A collection of artifacts will help portray the bravery and sacrifice of the Mighty Eighth. This exhibit will open on Tuesday\, July 23 and be on display until Saturday\, August 31.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted.   \nThe Eighth Air Force was the greatest air armada in history\, reaching peak strength of over 200\,000 personnel by mid-1944. In just three years\, the Eighth completed over 440\,000 bomber sorties dropping almost 700\,000 tons of bombs\, and 11\,200 aerial victories. They destroyed the German Luftwaffe\, and also destroyed Nazi Germany’s ability to wage war. These efforts paved the way for the D-Day assault. . \nThese accomplishments came with a price; the Eighth suffered nearly half of the U.S. Army Air Force’s casualties\, including more than 26\,000 dead. The servicemen of the Eighth earned 17 Medals of Honor (the highest military decoration)\, 220 Distinguished Service Crosses and many other awards. Visitors are invited to come to the museum to learn more about these heroes.  \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located at 1873 Hwy 98 West\, directly across from the very beach where the beach assault training occurred in 1942-1943. Carrabelle Beach was the site of many practice beach assault landings. For more information\, contact Camp Gordon Johnston Museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

SUMMARY:An Evening on the Edge of the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Come join the FSU Coastal and Marine Lab for An Evening on the Edge of the Sea to learn about the wondrous sea life along our pristine shores and shallows. The evening kicks off with a brief overview of local ecology\, followed by a walk into the exposed tidal flats to see an array of fascinating creatures. \nParticipating in field experiences is one way in which we humans connect with the natural world. By observing the intricate relationships creatures have with one another and with the habitats that are their homes\, we increase our understanding\, appreciation\, and support of nature. Unleash your creativity by connecting with nature through field exploration\, writing\, or art.  It’s good for your health and well-being and it is a two way street because when people bond with the natural world through creative activities\, they care more about and protect their local environment and wild places. \nEdge of the Sea workshops take place at the FSU Coastal & Marine Laboratory in St. Teresa\, FL. They start at 5:30 PM and end at 7:30 PM (unless otherwise indicated)\, taking full advantage of daylight savings time. The cost is $15 per person\, paid at the event (cash or check). Class size is limited to 20 people. The minimum age is 7 years old. No upper limit at all! We do ask that children between 7-13 are accompanied by a paying adult. \nWhat to bring: Old sneakers or other close-toed/heel shoes. No sandals.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Honoring the "Mighty Eighth" Air Force
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit exploring the heroic history of the Eighth Air Force\, known as The Mighty Eighth. A collection of artifacts will help portray the bravery and sacrifice of the Mighty Eighth. This exhibit will open on Tuesday\, July 23 and be on display until Saturday\, August 31.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted.   \nThe Eighth Air Force was the greatest air armada in history\, reaching peak strength of over 200\,000 personnel by mid-1944. In just three years\, the Eighth completed over 440\,000 bomber sorties dropping almost 700\,000 tons of bombs\, and 11\,200 aerial victories. They destroyed the German Luftwaffe\, and also destroyed Nazi Germany’s ability to wage war. These efforts paved the way for the D-Day assault. . \nThese accomplishments came with a price; the Eighth suffered nearly half of the U.S. Army Air Force’s casualties\, including more than 26\,000 dead. The servicemen of the Eighth earned 17 Medals of Honor (the highest military decoration)\, 220 Distinguished Service Crosses and many other awards. Visitors are invited to come to the museum to learn more about these heroes.  \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located at 1873 Hwy 98 West\, directly across from the very beach where the beach assault training occurred in 1942-1943. Carrabelle Beach was the site of many practice beach assault landings. For more information\, contact Camp Gordon Johnston Museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Honoring the "Mighty Eighth" Air Force
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit exploring the heroic history of the Eighth Air Force\, known as The Mighty Eighth. A collection of artifacts will help portray the bravery and sacrifice of the Mighty Eighth. This exhibit will open on Tuesday\, July 23 and be on display until Saturday\, August 31.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted.   \nThe Eighth Air Force was the greatest air armada in history\, reaching peak strength of over 200\,000 personnel by mid-1944. In just three years\, the Eighth completed over 440\,000 bomber sorties dropping almost 700\,000 tons of bombs\, and 11\,200 aerial victories. They destroyed the German Luftwaffe\, and also destroyed Nazi Germany’s ability to wage war. These efforts paved the way for the D-Day assault. . \nThese accomplishments came with a price; the Eighth suffered nearly half of the U.S. Army Air Force’s casualties\, including more than 26\,000 dead. The servicemen of the Eighth earned 17 Medals of Honor (the highest military decoration)\, 220 Distinguished Service Crosses and many other awards. Visitors are invited to come to the museum to learn more about these heroes.  \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located at 1873 Hwy 98 West\, directly across from the very beach where the beach assault training occurred in 1942-1943. Carrabelle Beach was the site of many practice beach assault landings. For more information\, contact Camp Gordon Johnston Museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com.

SUMMARY:An Evening on the Edge of the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Come join the FSU Coastal and Marine Lab for An Evening on the Edge of the Sea to learn about the wondrous sea life along our pristine shores and shallows. The evening kicks off with a brief overview of local ecology\, followed by a walk into the exposed tidal flats to see an array of fascinating creatures. \nParticipating in field experiences is one way in which we humans connect with the natural world. By observing the intricate relationships creatures have with one another and with the habitats that are their homes\, we increase our understanding\, appreciation\, and support of nature. Unleash your creativity by connecting with nature through field exploration\, writing\, or art.  It’s good for your health and well-being and it is a two way street because when people bond with the natural world through creative activities\, they care more about and protect their local environment and wild places. \nEdge of the Sea workshops take place at the FSU Coastal & Marine Laboratory in St. Teresa\, FL. They start at 5:30 PM and end at 7:30 PM (unless otherwise indicated)\, taking full advantage of daylight savings time. The cost is $15 per person\, paid at the event (cash or check). Class size is limited to 20 people. The minimum age is 7 years old. No upper limit at all! We do ask that children between 7-13 are accompanied by a paying adult. \nWhat to bring: Old sneakers or other close-toed/heel shoes. No sandals. Bug Spray \nCourse Date        ——        Application Deadline\n6/1/2024 5:30 PM  ——    5/31/2024\n6/22/2024 5:30 PM  —— 6/21/2024\n7/6/2024 5:30 PM  ——    7/5/2024\n7/20/2024 5:30 PM  ——  7/19/2024\n8/3/2024 5:30 PM  ——    8/2/2024\n8/17/2024 5:30 PM ——   8/16/2024\n8/31/2024 5:30 PM  ——  8/30/2024\n9/14/2024 5:30 PM ——   9/13/2024\n9/28/2024 5:30 PM ——   9/27/2024 \nRegister at https://marinelab.fsu.edu/outreach-and-education/evening-at-the-edge-of-the-sea/workshop-registration/ \n
