Beyond the Numbers
The Moments That Matter
The numbers tell part of the story. The rest lives in the moments:
A student measuring a live crab inside the boathouse, learning field science the way it's meant to be taught.
A Girl Scout troop marking the US Coast Guard’s birthday with the Bells of Peace Ceremony.
A room of locals and visitors bent over paper and ink, learning gyotaku (the Japanese art of fish printing) for the first time.
