It’s #NationalShrimpDay, and our REFRESHED EXHIBIT, “Shrimpin' Ain’t Easy,” is OPEN!!! Stop by the Museum today to view the exhibit and learn about our local shrimping history! Displayed in the lower right corner of the first picture are net weights. These early lead weights were used on shrimp trawls for many years. The lead weights were replaced with a chain for weight, as seen with the net we have on exhibit. This set of lead shrimp net weights belonged to the late Felice Golino, owner of the St. Johns Shrimp Company. #MissionMonday #ShrimpinAintEasy #Shrimp #NetWeights #LoveYourLighthouse #StAugustineLighthouse #StaLighthouse #NationsOldestPort #StAugustine #KeepTheLightShining #Community #Connected #Mission #Centered #Visit #Join #Donate
