SUMMARY:FAM Archaeology Kayak Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an archaeology-focused paddle trip to an excavation site at the Weedon Island Preserve. \n\n\n\nJoin archaeologists and environmental specialists for a unique archaeology-focused paddling event. This is a one-of-a-kind event\, featuring local experts who will guide your experience of the natural and cultural history of Weedon Island.  \nThe trip begins with a paddle from Weedon Island’s fishing pier to Ross Island\, a nearby island within the Preserve’s boundary. On Ross Island\, participants will explore an archaeological site with Kendal Jackson\, a PhD candidate with the University of South Florida who works on Ross Island as part of his doctorate research. \nThis trip will be led by Rachael Kangas\, Director of the West Central division of The Florida Public Archaeology Network (FPAN)\, and Dr. Bob Austin with the Alliance for Weedon Island Archaeological Research and Education\, Inc. (AWIARE). They will make stops along the way to discuss archaeological and historical aspects of the area. In addition\, environmental specialists from ECOmersion will be on the water to interpret the Preserve’s natural areas and enhance participants’ understanding of estuaries. \n\nParticipants must be 18 years of age or older. Kayaks will be provided by ECOmersion. Those who prefer to use their own kayaks are welcome to do so\, however\, neither Sun Dolphin nor Pelican brand kayaks will be allowed.\nAttendees will meet at 7:30 a.m. at the fishing pier/kayak launch located inside the Weedon Island Preserve. This kayak trip will be moderately strenuous and is not recommended for first-time paddlers.\n\nProceeds from this program go to support ECOmersion\, AWIARE and FPAN \n>>> REGISTER HERE <<<
