Erika Young with NC Sea Grant partnered with Richard Neal, owner of Frying Pan Tower to provide the first immersive scientific research and education experience for five teachers on the famous Frying Pan Tower. Join us to learn how these teachers spent a week living on top of this former US Coast Guard Light Station, located in Frying Pan Shoals, 32 miles out in the ocean south of Bald Head Island.

The Lunchtime Discovery Series is produced by the NC DEQ Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs in partnership with the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
