While I always want my grandchildren to have a great time on their intergenerational programs, I also want them to have new experiences and to come away from the program with new knowledge. This program provided all of these things. The two girls had a great time while learning and enjoying new experiences. The field trips around Amelia Island, to Cumberland Island, Jekyll Island, and the Okefenokee Swamp all provided new adventures (seining in the ocean, shrimping, visiting the turtle hospital, seeing alligators, and spending time with a Civil War reenactor). The grandparents learned some new things too!
The accomadations for this program were excellent and our coordinator, Tom Murray had a wealth of information about the region and the culture.
