Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum
It’s Fall and the Chesapeake Semester’s back at it! This year’s Orientation week took us to the campus of the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, MD where students received behind the scenes tours with Education Program consultant Robert Forloney, museum curator, Pete Lesher, and a special exhibit tour with Chesapeake Bay photographer David Harp. Students also enjoyed a skipjack sail with Captain Wade Murphy and trot lining with Captain Russell Dize and Captain Lawrence Taylor, before coming back up to Kent County for team building activities and a two and half day float down the Chester River.
