Cambridge, MD – Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina, an award-winning waterfront destination nestled on 342 acres of Maryland’s Eastern Shore, partners with Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the largest independent conservation organization dedicated solely to saving the Bay, to install 16 oyster cages along its dock.
“We are honored to partner with the incredible Chesapeake Bay Foundation on this important initiative to help rebuild the local oyster population,” said Yagmur Quillin, wellbeing experience manager at Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay. “This program is also a great way for us to help spread awareness and education to our guests about our unique location, and the vital role of oysters in Chesapeake Bay.”
The new oyster cages will safely house more than 10,000 spat (baby oysters) to help replenish the Bay’s depleted oyster population. After being in the oyster cages for one year, the spat will be transplanted onto sanctuary oyster reefs. Once the oysters are fully mature, they can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day each.
Through this unique partnership, the resort has also created a new experience for groups visiting the property. During the activity, groups work together to build the oyster cages while learning more about the mollusk and how it serves as a keystone species for the Bay.
