It's a fascinating question and on June 4-5, 2012 conservationists, researchers, artists and cognitive neuroscientists are travelling to the Outer Banks to explore the answers. The summit will take place at Jennette's Pier in Nags Head, and SAGA Construction is a proud sponsor of this event. The ultimate goal of the meeting is to provide a fundamental understanding of our connection to the ocean and to use this information as a means of future protection.

Dr. Wallace J. Nichols, BLUEMIND founder, states "For my entire lifetime, the ocean has become more damaged with each passing year. I'd like to live long enough to see the day when it starts getting healthier. That tipping point isn't far off if we begin to reach people in ways that truly and deeply connect them to the water." We could not agree more!
