History
FMSEA's past is rich in individuals whose contributions have arisen out of true devotion to marine education here in Florida. From the small group of educators who gathered in 1968 to this year's conference attendees, FMSEA has always been a "labor of love" for those who have seen a need to bring together those interested in the study and enjoyment of fresh water and marine environments.
As you look through the pages of our history, we encourage you to not only reflect upon the path FMSEA has taken over the years, but also to look ahead to the next years to come and the role each of us can play in the future of marine education in the state of Florida.
Historical Archive
Prior to 2011, FMSEA published a quarterly newsletter called The Littoral Drift. Back in 2013, Carol Leonard sent boxes of old Drifts and other literature that she had been safeguarding over the years to Mote Marine Laboratory to be digitized. Over the course of the summer, Lucija Prelovec, an intern at Mote, carefully and diligently unbound and scanned the documents. Jason Robertshaw uploaded those scans to FMSEA's Google Drive. Please take a look at it.
Help us: Right now they are not in any order. It might be a nice service project to go through some of these records and organize them. Also, if you have additional FMSEA documents that you would like to add to this record, contact support @ fmsea.org.
