SUMMARY:MLC's Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Rachael Peabody\, New Executive Director of Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission\, Shares Overview of VA’s Working Waterfront Grant and 2026 Goals!  \nRachael Peabody previously served as the Assistant Director of Restoration for the Elizabeth River Project in Norfolk and spent six years (2014 –2020) at VMRC working for both its Fisheries and Habitat Management Divisions. “Virginia’s coastal ecosystems support fisheries\, wildlife\, aquaculture\, navigation\, carbon storage and tourism\, and provide significant naturaldefenses against coastal storms. Sea level rise and climate change is a key threat to the health of our marine environments\, fisheries\, and economy now and in the future.”  \nRachael’s love for the marine environment and passion for conservation of its natural resources began at the University of West Alabama where she worked as a graduate student at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab. Her Master’s research focused on the impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on intertidal fish communities in an Alabama salt marsh. Her work along the east coast on commercial fishing vessels and building relationships within the fishing and marine industries has engrained in Rachael the importance of balanced and sustainable management of our marine resources to sustain healthy coastal communities.

SUMMARY:Changing Courses
DESCRIPTION:Changing Courses Presented by Paul Mitchell\, Historian \nHow two Confederate soldiers faithfully served God and changed the course of history after the Civil War \nPaul Mitchell is a native of Powatan\, Virginia\, and a graduate of VMI. In recent years\, he has spent his time researching and writing. He is coming to speak at Kingston Parish House about two figures important to the history of Kingston Parish. \nThe Rev. Frank Stringfellow served as rector of Kingston from 1886 to 1889. The Rev. Giles Buckner Cook served Kingston as rector from 1904 to 1915. Both men served the Confederate Army in fascinating ways earlier in their lives and then went on to faithfully serve God in the Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Virginia in ways that included the furthering of black education at many levels.
