The Museum of the Albemarle will host our monthly History for Lunch on Wednesday, Mar. 18 at 12 p.m. in the Gaither Auditorium. The Museum of the Albemarle, a part of the Division of State History Museums, Office of Archives and History, is an agency of the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
Nestled on the banks of the Pasquotank River, the Elizabeth City Rowing Club draws from the region’s rich maritime roots and a modern mission of community, discipline, and teamwork. Founded to bring novices and seasoned athletes alike onto the water, the club weaves the rhythmic sweep of oars into the timeless current of this historic harbor town. Rowing itself stretches back to ancient civilizations—Egyptian galleys and Roman vessels—developing in 17th-century England on the River Thames through races between professional watermen. Presented by Carol Terryberry, head coach of the Elizabeth City Rowing Club.
The Museum will offer the History for Lunch program in-person and through Zoom. To attend the lecture virtually, click here to receive the meeting link: https://www.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/exFosPpQQPmOknHMZxmXrg#/registration.
Registration is not required to attend the lecture in person.
