On Saturday during the clam harvest at Waretown, RCTB member Bruce Beverage was eagerly harvesting a variety of marine life. As the predator nets were dragged to shore Bruce was able to catch the live animals the were entangled in the nets and place them in a large transparent container. Several children and their parents were very intrigued to see the different form of life found in the bay.
Bruce is our fairs and festivals chairman and has attended most of the events for the last three years. He became much more interested in marine life found in the bay after hearing the questions asked by the public at those fairs. When he did not know the answer to a specific question he would go to his computer and “google” an answer. (Is google a verb). After he gathered a great deal of information he decided to put it all on a web site in order to share what he had learned with other interested people. The web site is called Barnegat Bay Shellfish. Check it out.
