Break Description
Join us off the coast of St. Marys, GA for a week of outdoor service, learning, and beautiful scenery and wildlife at Cumberland Island National Seashore!
Cumberland Island is located off the coast of Georgia, just north of the Florida border, and is home to wild horses, armadillos, sea turtles and lots of history. We will spend the week working to clear and reroute trails, replace trail signs, maintain historic structures on the island, and more!
We will travel by JMU van to St. Marys, GA and spend the night in a local church before catching the morning ferry to the island. For the rest of the week, we will be camping on the island, at a site with accessible bathrooms and showers. Plan to bring a pillow, a sleeping bag, and other camping gear (which you can rent from UREC!). Meals will be prepared at the campsite.
Join us as we learn about this unique and beautiful place!
