Problem

Line Segment $\overline{AB}$ is a diameter of a circle with $AB = 24$. Point $C$, not equal to $A$ or $B$, lies on the circle. As point $C$ moves around the circle, the centroid (center of mass) of (insert triangle symbol)$ABC$ traces out a closed curve missing two points. To the nearest positive integer, what is the area of the region bounded by this curve?
