Monday

Live Like a Timucua

Learn about the original Native American inhabitants of our area as you visit the Cumberland Island National Seashore Museum to see up-close their way of life and touch tools they used.

Gain VIP access to the Cumberland Museum's archive to view artifacts not accessible to the public!

Forage just as the Native Americans would have for natural resources to use in our next craft.

Then, it's time to make pottery! Use your foraged items to decorate a clay pot, which you can take home!

Tuesday

St. Marys Scavenger Hunt!

Discover the history of St. Marys - and gain insider access inside its historic buildings - as you go on a scavenger hunt through downtown!

It's game time! Let's play wiffleball, mimicking games that locals would have played in St. Marys a century ago.

Then, learn how African Americans would have gathered seafood by cast netting in the St. Marys River!

Wednesday

(Note: This is the only day  with different start and end times and different drop off and pick up locations)

Today, we visit Cumberland Island to discover thousands of years of history, from the Native Americans to the Spanish, early Americans to the Gilded Age, and beyond!

See haunting ruins, view wild horses, and learn of the nature of Cumberland Island.

Now for the beach! Here, we will seine for fish in the ocean and run relay races just as the Carnegie family did 100 years ago!

Thursday

Under the Sea

We are back in St. Marys to explore the St. Marys Submarine Museum and view its countless artifacts with the museum's director.

Then, we will do crafts based on unexpected submarine residents: animals!

Now it's time to discover seafarers and other prominent St. Marys figures on a scavenger hunt in Oak Grove Cemetery.

Friday

Take A Bite Out Of St. Marys

Today is about local food! We will decorate cookies at Cottle and Gunn and then devour our sweet creations!
