 \nJoin us for this year’s Open House at the Horn Point Laboratory. Learn a
 bout cutting edge research our faculty and graduate students conduct in th
 e Chesapeake Bay and across the world's oceans. Explore environmental scie
 nce through exhibits\, presentations\, and hands-on activities.  Board the
  research vessel RACHEL CARSON and explore aquaculture and more at the boa
 t ramp.  Visit one of the East Coast's largest oyster hatcheries to explor
 e the iconic oyster from baby spat to restoration sanctuaries.  Games and 
 free t-shirts for the kids and food for all provided by Ruritans.  This is
  a great family event\, so plan to spend some time with us and learn about
  the world of a marine scientist. \n\n\n\n“This is the best day of the yea
 r for the community to learn about the science of the Bay. Everyone at the
  lab is on deck to explain their research with activities and displays tha
 t make it easy to understand\,” said Horn Point Laboratory Director Mike R
 oman.\n\n\n	Fly a drone over a digital map of the Chesapeake Bay.\n	Play in 
 a digital sand box to create shorelines and model weather’s impact around 
 the Bay with laser imaging.\n	See an animation of the travels of oyster lar
 vae as they move from the reef where they spawned to their new\, permanent
  home reef. \n	Match up a DNA sequence to microscopic creatures important t
 o the food chain.\n	Observe and learn about sturgeon whose ancestors date t
 o the Jurassic period\n	Build a healthy marsh and learn who are our best pa
 rtners in this effort.\n	Meet and talk to graduate students about their env
 ironmental career goals.\n	At the children’s activity booth\, create eco-fr
 iendly animals that live in our waters. Play games that teach fun facts ab
 out the Bay.  Go on a scavenger hunt through the exhibits to learn how the
  Bay’s lasting health starts with each of us making a cleaner environment 
 today.\n\n\n\n\nFREE! Directions to the laboratory.\n\n\n\nQuestions?  Con
