SUMMARY:Children's Colonial Day
DESCRIPTION:** CANCELED **As part of the Beaufort Historic Site’s mission to educate future generations about their cultural heritage\, a Children’s Colonial Day will be held Friday\, August 2 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Beaufort Historic Site. For just $10\, children from ages 6 through 10 can dress up in colonial clothing\, play colonial games\, and enjoy a colonial meal. \nThe home cooked meal will consists of applesauce\, spiral ham\, and biscuits that the kids will help make! Children will get to weave their own bookmark with a big loom\, and learn how spinning wheels were used to create clothing and more.  They will also get to partake in games which were an important part of the day for Colonial children with sack races\, water flume games\, the game of graces\, and games fashioned out of rope and wood. \nThis program is a great way to enrich a child’s mind with history\, while allowing parents to bond with their children. “It is amazing to see how little children today know about where their food and clothing comes from other than being purchased at the store\,” Denise Finley said. Finley is the Educational Coordinator at the Beaufort Historic Site “We love to keep this important history alive\, and we can’t think of any better way to do this than having children and parents participate together.” \nThe cost is $10 for children\, and parents are free.  Attendees are encouraged to stick around after the event at 2 p.m. for a flag retirement ceremony. The ceremony will be open to the general public. For more information on Children’s Colonial Day or to reserve you a spot please\, stop in at the Welcome Center\, visit www.beauforthistoricsite.org\, or call 252-728-5225.

SUMMARY:Plaster Repair Workshop with Phillip Lamachio
DESCRIPTION:Join Phillip Lamachio for a plaster repair workshop on July 20 from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. \nAlthough Philip has a degree in Architectural Design\, he wanted a more ‘hands on’ experience and began to learn plaster repair in 1985. Starting his own plaster repair company in 1992 in Greensboro\, he recognizes the need for a better understanding of the discipline of plaster repair and hopes to spread the knowledge of this unique skill through his online video training program. \nFor this presentation\, Philip will give an overview of plaster systems and their common problems and go through a visual outline of a simple repair. \nThis presentation should last about 45 minutes with time to answer any questions that the audience has about plaster and plaster repair. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the Beaufort Historic Site Welcome Center or by calling 252-728-5225.

SUMMARY:Dolphin Tales
DESCRIPTION:North Carolina Maritime Museum’s Natural Science Curator\, Keith Rittmaster\, will discuss his research on local dolphin identification at the Beaufort Historic Site’s Welcome Center. His Photo-ID dolphin research project has been going on since 1985.  Keith\, his wife Vicky Thayer\, and other colleagues have been permitted through NOAA Fisheries to study dolphins by making regular trips to photograph the dolphins’ dorsal fins. Rittmaster has approximately 1\,200 different dolphins identified in an online database that allows people to match the fin photos\, and in turn\, leads to discoveries in bottlenose dolphin migrations\, associations\, genetic stocks\, and birthrates. \n“The information we learn about where the dolphins go and how they’re using the coast is used by the National Marine Fisheries to help determine fishing regulations. We’re not just doing this for the fun of it\,” Rittmaster said. “Federal fish biologists also use it to learn about the genetic pools of bottlenose dolphin populations.” Rittmaster’s work is important to know what may have caused a stranding and\, ultimately\, the death of a marine mammal. \nThis fascinating presentation is free and open to the public\, but seating is limited so reservations are required.  To make reservations\, email Denise Finley at bhaeducation@outlook.com\, call the Beaufort Historic Site at 252-728-5225\, or stop by the Welcome Center at 130 Turner Street.

SUMMARY:Black History Bus Tour with Curtis Oden
DESCRIPTION:Learn Beaufort’s Black History atop a Double Decker Bus  \n  \nAs part of the Beaufort Historic Site’s Living History Series\, Beaufort native\, Curtis Oden will narrate a special English Double Decker Bus Tour about black history in Beaufort\, N.C. This informative historic bus tour will cover over 25 sites and will take off from the Beaufort Historic Site at 130 Turner St. on June 7\, June 14\, July 13\, and July 24 at 11 a.m. The tour will last about an hour and will cost $15 per person. \nThe bus will be driven through the streets of downtown Beaufort while Oden points out historic sites such as churches\, stores\, and residents that have been influential in shaping black history in Beaufort. \nOne of the very first black-owned stores in the town was a shoe shop that sat next to the Josiah Bell House on Turner St. “It was one of the very first black-owned shoe shops and it was run by Mr. Adam Wright and also my great grandfather\, Collins Oden\, and then later my great uncle Curtis Oden was the one who ran it\,” Oden said. \nOden’s relatives were not the only black-owned businesses in the area.  Just down the road on Front St. was a blacksmith shop that was owned by a man named Mr. Fisher. On that same street was the Sam Lipman Convenience Store and it sat directly where the First Citizens Bank ATM is now. \nWhile Oden will point out many older historic areas\, he also will show you some of the places he grew up visiting such as the Purvis Chapel A.M.E. Zion Methodist Church and the old location of The Beaufort Theater. \n“During the 50’s and 60’s my friends and I would go to the Beaufort Theater\, and see then it was whites would sit on the main level and the blacks would have to set in the balcony\, but it was always okay\, we would make jokes about how we really had the best seats in the house!” Oden said. “I grew up and was baptized at the Methodist Church (Purvis Church) and that is where blacks and whites would worship together\, there it was also white people on the main level and blacks in the balcony.” \nNo stranger to the community\, Oden said he is excited to come back and narrate this tour for Beaufort and all of its residents and visitors.
