Lowcountry Maritime Society Creeks, rivers, marshes, harbors and beaches are what make the Lowcountry unique.

The mission of the Lowcountry Maritime School is to inspire the Lowcountry's young people to reach their full potential through boatbuilding and exploring maritime culture. These natural resources provide irreplicable opportunities that should be experienced by the entire Lowcountry community. The goal of the Lowcountry Maritime Society (LMS) is to provide access to the water and provide experiences on and around the water while supporting the community surrounding these areas. Lowcountry Maritime Society's programs focus on:

Education

Lowcountry maritime history and culture

Community development

Family Development

So we are up and running and building boats!
It's been a great start to the school year, and we are making good progress. We will work with hundreds of children in the Lowcountry this year and teach STEM education and life skills along the way. Please consider making a contribution on our website to help our cause and mission. We appreciate your thoughtful donations, and every bit helps. Thanks for your support!

We had a great week of boatbuilding day camp, and it was the last one of the summer. The kids built a 12 foot wooden skiff, and it turned out nice!
Enjoy these photos from the week.

Stay tuned for some back to school content coming soon.
