Join us Thursday August 18th for the 435th Birthday of Virginia Dare!
-
Virginia Dare Night commemorates the 435th anniversary of the birth of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the New World to colonist Eleanor Dare. The Lost Colony continues its long-celebrated tradition of using real babies during the August 18th performance. Being a “Virginia Dare Baby” is a coveted role in the community and many local citizens are proud to say that they once played the part. For Virginia Dare Night only, the prop baby swaddled in blankets, is replaced with these special guests. Virginia Dare Night is generously sponsored by First National Bank.

Vacationer Colton Knight, age 12, from Lexington, Va. caught, and later released, this tiny web burrfish with a cast net in the surf around Milepost 8 in Kill Devil Hills on Thursday, Aug. 11. This type of spiny puffer typically lives in warm tropical waters from southeast Florida and the Bahamas to Venezuela. It can grow to ten inches long. Web burrfish are usually found on open seagrass flats. Its possible this little guy caught a ride in some sea grass in the Gulf Stream before finding its way to shore. Colton’s mom photographed and filmed the creature before it was let free in the sea.
