SUMMARY:History on Tap: The Remarkable History of Penikese Island
DESCRIPTION:Penikese Island\, a 75-acre wildlife sanctuary at the southwest end of the Elizabeth Island chain\, has a fascinating history from a natural history summer school to a leper colony and now serves as a vital refuge for endangered seabirds. For 150 years\, botanical surveys have tracked its ecological changes\, and today the Penikese Island School turns this living classroom into a place where learners of all ages explore conservation\, science\, and environmental stewardship.
