Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve Science Symposium 2012

Science Symposium 2012 Cultural and natural resources have a shared history of over 6,000 years within the Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve. The interaction between nature and humans is evident…from the spoil islands to the altered wetlands, from the shell middens of the Timucuan to the tabby structures of Kingsley Plantation and from the boat docks of neighboring subdivisions to the introduction of exotic animals and plants. The Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve is a place where natural and cultural resources connect.

Please join us at the Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve’s Science Symposium on Friday, January 20th, 2012 at the Ribault Club on Fort George Island in Jacksonville, Florida. Check-in and on-site registration opens at 8:30a.m. The event will begin at 9:00a.m.
