This Saturday Colby Trustee Sandy Buck, Sissy Buck, and a group of Colby facuty met Philip Conkling, Peter Ralston, Buzz Bullock, and Herring Gut Board Chair Peter Harris for a trip to Allen Island and the Herring Gut School. Phillip and Peter were the principal island architects that helped Betsy Wyeth transform an uninhabited and over grown island into a unique resource for fishing, education, and research. The trip was the first visit to the island for several participants and also provided an opportunity the group to interact with Prof. Ben Lisle’s Cultural Geography Class, AM226.
