and cruising on their 34-foot trawler from Oak Island South on the ICW. It has been a total adventure, learning experience, and challenge, but Donna has goten "salty!" It took them 24 days and 470 miles to get to St. Augustine, Florida. She was actually at a marina submiting this while at Marineland! They spent a week there exploring and playing with their toys: dingy, paddle board and kayak. There were lots of dolphins, sea turtles, ospreys, pelicans and searches for the roseate spoonbill. They will probably head north aſter leaving Marineland because Donna is in 12 potery shops specializing in sea turtle potery in addition to teaching environmental programs in the spring. Donna’s passion for potery and love of science began while she was a student at Queens. Happy cruising and make your dreams come true.
Elisa Camara Thompson is currently very busy completing the
www.WeCameInPeace.us documentary honoring her brother, United States Marine Core Sergeant Mecot Camara, who was killed in the 1983 Beirut Bombing. She was a freshman living in Belk Dorm during the time of this historic tragedy. This poignant, intensely personal film will chronicle the United States Marines presence in Beirut, Lebanon, from 1982 to 1984. Most of Elisa’s memories
from Queens were filled with happy moments being together with her Phi Mu Sorority sisters. However, Oct. 23, 1983, is a day that she will never forget. This documentary will serve to ensure that these brave men are never forgoten, especially her brother.
