During Shipwreck Week at the Nature Adventures Summer Day Camp, our campers have learned about the Titanic, what materials decompose over time in saltwater, what marine animals inhabit shipwrecks as habitat, etc. All of our kids were visited by diver Tom Mulloy, or, as they now know him, “Shipwreck Tom,” who brought a collection of artifacts with him to display. The kids each got the opportunity to look through a nineteenth-century porthole at a nineteenth-century sailing ship, to take a glimpse back in time.
The kids also got to see one of their counselors, Pam, dress up as a diver, which was worth the price of admission itself!
