Community Corner
Bay Day at Robinson Nature Center
Howard County is connected to the Chesapeake Bay via the
Middle Patuxent River. Come out and enjoy this celebration of Chesapeake Bay
food, restoration efforts, and fun. This year we are focusing on the oyster
whose harvesting season in the Bay is from November 2013 until the end of
February 2014. Come buy a bushel of oysters to shuck and eat on-site or at
home. Learn how you can recycle your oyster shells at the center so that they
can become substrate on which young oysters can grow. Meet “touch tank” animals
in our Discovery Room and take part in fun, Chesapeake-themed activities. No
registration necessary (Free with paid admission). Children must be accompanied by an adult. Info:
