See You Next Year

I can't believe it's over! My favorite part about working here was everything, I can't pick one moment that wasn't amazing. One thing I learned this summer is that green crabs have 5 spikes and that's how you can tell if a crab is a green crab or not. I also learned that spider crabs aren't invasive. Some personal skills I've improved on are my communication skills. I've managed to tell people about all of the weird and interesting things about crabs and have them actually understand what I'm talking about. I can use these skills in my personal life every day, except for the crab skills. I don't see crabs every day at school so everything but the crab skills I'll use. If one day a crab comes along I can freak everyone out by picking it up without it pinching me.

My favorite game to play at Save the Harbor is Uno Flip. For August, I was playing with Madison the Uno master. The one thing I will miss most about this summer is the fun everyone has working here. Can't wait till next year!

Welcome!

Welcome to Save the Harbor / Save the Bay's Boston Harbor blog "Sea, Sand & Sky".

Save the Harbor/Save the Bay is a non-profit public-interest Boston Harbor environmental advocacy organization whose mission is to restore and protect Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay, the Boston Harbor Islands, the Boston Harbor region's public beaches, Boston's waterfront and the marine environment and share them with the public, for everyone to enjoy.

Since 1986, Save the Harbor / Save the Bay has been the driving force behind the transformation of Boston Harbor from one of the dirtiest urban harbors in America to one of the cleanest in the world.

As a result of our advocacy, Boston Harbor has been transformed from a "Harbor of Shame" into a source of recreational, educational and economic opportunity and civic pride. Today the beaches of South Boston are among the cleanest urban beaches in the nation, the Boston Harbor Islands are a National Park, and Boston's waterfront has become a compelling destination for residents and visitors alike.

Working with a broad base of civic, corporate, government, scientific, philanthropic and community partners, Save the Harbor / Save the Bay continues to strengthen the connections between communities and the harbor, and promote the increasingly important impact Boston Harbor has on the region’s economy.

Each year Save the Harbor / Save the Bay runs 2 free Youth Environmental Education Programs that combine recreation and hands-on education to bring Boston Harbor alive for thousands of Boston area young people. Since 2003, we have connected nearly 250,000 youth and teens to Boston Harbor, the Boston Harbor Islands, our region's public beaches and Boston's waterfront.
