We were honored to host Earnie Olsen at our meeting on February 18th for a fascinating presentation on the Citrus County Marine Science Station (MSS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 1967, the MSS has been a cornerstone of environmental education in Crystal River, offering students unique, “hands-on, feet-wet” experiences that you just can’t get in a traditional classroom. From exploring salt marshes to studying our local marine life, they are truly cultivating the next generation of coastal stewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To show our appreciation for this vital community resource, the Kings Bay Rotary Charitable Foundation was proud to present Earnie with a check to support the Marine Science Station’s ongoing programs and the upcoming Coastal Camp Citrus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe that investing in local education and environmental conservation is one of the best ways to serve our community. We are thrilled to help ensure these programs continue to thrive for years to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’d love for you to join us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kings Bay Rotary Club meets at the George Washington Carver Center every Wednesday @ 12:00 PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n
