JU’s “Ripples on the River” featured in Sunday, May 19, Florida Times-Union

The Florida Times-Union featured a nice gallery of images of the Sixth Annual Ripples on the River at Jacksonville University’s Marine Science Research Institute in its Sunday, May 19, print editions.

The first 200 youths at the May 18 event received a free rod and reel from Fish Florida. The event included live music; a fishing clinic by TV personality Capt. Don Dingman; tours of the beautiful new W.C. and Susan Gentry Boardwalk and Nature Preserve; SeaBest Seafood and hot dogs, chips and slaw for for lunch; Sweetwater Beer samples; a critter touch tank by Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission; and tours of the MSRI.
