  THE GILLS CLUB will meet at the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History 
Saturday, February 22, 2014 at 10am. This education initiative by the 
Atlantic White Shark Conservancy is dedicated to connecting girls 
with female marine biologists, sharing knowledge, empowering them to 
take leadership positions and to inspire others with their passion 
for sharks. The Gills Club is pleased to have Heather Marshall, PhD 
candidate at UMASS-Dartmouth, as this month's guest speaker. 
Heather's interest in sharks began in childhood after reading a book 
about the shark attacks along the coast of New Jersey in 1916. Her 
early fears gave way to fascination while researching sharks as an 
intern for Dr. Greg Skomal of the Massachusetts Division of Marine 
Fisheries in 2004. Currently, Heather is researching the physiology 
and ecology of sandbar and dusky sharks while finishing her PhD at 
UMASS-Dartmouth.

Admission is Free / Recommended Age is 8 to 108.
Space is limited, Reservations Recommended
Please call 508-896-3867, Ext. # 133
