5th Summer!!

Hey everyone it has been a while, this year it is my 5th year at Save The Harbor and I'm very excited to be back. During the school year I attended my first year at college which was a different experience but nonetheless it was an amazing experience. It did take some time to get used to being on my own but it taught me how to become more responsible. Took some challenging classes and met amazing people. It was overall a good school year.

I am very excited to be back for my fifth year !! It’s always fun to see who returns and meeting the new comers. This year for orientation we did a scavenger hunt, went fishing and went to spectacle island which is always fun. It’s always great to catch up with returners who I haven’t seen since last summer. I caught up with Jay and Dee, it’s great to hear that things are going well for them.

This year I get to be a SHE where I'm excited and just a little bit nervous to lead my own group of kids but I think that it will be a good summer. I was very sad to hear that my SHE from last year Madison wasn’t returning and that I would be filling in her shoes. I'm also excited to be back at Camp Harbor View (CHV). Well that is all I have to say so, see you out on the water - Ari

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.
