HISTORIC HOMES: Savannah's story is shared in the many museum homes and cultural centers throughout the area. Visit the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low, founder of the Girl Scouts, and the Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters Museum, generally considered to be the finest example of Regency architecture in America and featuring one of the few remaining urban slave quarters in the country. ALCOHOL PROHIBITED: At the American Prohibition Museum, take a journey through the institution and repeal of the 18th Amendment, complete with over 200 original artifacts. Your students will be immersed in the history as they take photos with Al Capone, dance the Charleston (a favorite of the flappers) and feel the weight of a Tommy gun. ARRR YOU HUNGRY? Since 1753, The Pirates' House and its characters have been welcoming students with a bounty of delicious food, drink and rousing good times. You may even see the ghost of a seafarer: Robert Louis Stevenson's iconic novel "Treasure Island" mentions this establishment when it was a tavern and pirate hangout. SEE A SHOWSTOPPER: The Savannah Theatre's entertainment extravaganza brings you fantastic, two-hour, Broadway-style productions. Dating back to 1818, the theater provides an exciting way to spend an evening that's fun for all ages. DAY 3 WALKING WITH WILDLIFE: Located just east of Savannah on a marsh island, The Oatland Island Wildlife Center features a two-mile Native Animal Nature Trail that winds through maritime forest, salt marsh and freshwater wetlands. More than 40 programs are available to students and troops to study endangered species and organism classification. SHACK ATTACK: Your students will love The Crab Shack at Chimney Creek, a signature restaurant boasting a live alligator exhibit and exotic bird sanctuary. BEACH BIOLOGY: Tybee Beach Ecology Trips are offered year-round by marine biologist Dr. Joe Richardson. Your students will embrace learning about the variety of marine life along the Georgia coast with a hands-on experience unlike any other. After your walk, hop aboard this tour and watch dolphins at play and egrets catching fish right alongside your boat. DELIGHT IN THE LIGHT: Climb to the top of Georgia's tallest and oldest lighthouse. The Tybee Island Light Station is one of America's most intact, with all of its historic support remaining.
