Campers Visit US Coast Guard Cutter BLOCK ISLAND

On Thursday, July 28th, twenty-five campers from Sea Gull and Seafarer had a chance to visit the Coast Guard Cutter BLOCK ISLAND.  The 110’ patrol boat is stationed at Fort Macon and captained by Sea Gull alumnus Grant Thomas.  The campers and few lucky counselors were able to tour the cutter and get a first-hand experience of life in the Coast Guard.  After touring the boat, the campers and crew of the BLOCK ISLAND got underway and cruised for a few hours near Beaufort Inlet. What a great opportunity and a big thank you to Grant Thomas!
