(I am so in love with this that it is worth repeating...) There are three orange trees in my front yard. How awesome is that?!? Here is the season's first fruit, courtesy of my marvelous neighbor and his impressive orange fetching skills (I've never seen someone throw a golf club in the air with such precision). Needless to say, it was the best piece of citrus my mouth has ever eaten and I am definitely looking forward to many more oranges to come!! Yummy!!!!One of my Member Roles at the GSTC is Marketing and Outreach. One of my favorite parts of this role is going to various events and tabling, giving brochures and coupons for the Center, teaching passer-bys about sea turtles and most of all playing Tic-Tac-Turtle. Imagine Tic-Tac-Toe but instead of x's and o's they are blue and orange magnetic turtles and in order to mark a space one must answer a turtle trivia question correctly. It is super fun and is always the talk of the event. My most recent tabling outreach event was at King's Bay Naval Submarine Base. Here are some photos from the event, courtesy of the King's Bay Periscope.
Renee and I had the pleasure of attending The Jekyll Island Singer's Spring Concert. It was quite the event as one of our extremely talented volunteers was debuting his arrangement of Georgia On My Mind. Needless to say, it was nothing short of spectacular.
A few of the AmeriCorps Members and I also traveled down to Jacksonville to attend a Mat Kearney andIngrid Michaelson concert. The concert was super chill and we had a blast meeting Mat, Ingrid, and their band members after the concert. The Florida Theater, the venue of the concert, reminded me of the Fabulous Fox in Atlanta. I am looking forward to many more great shows there.
