Our second year coming out to Sonoran Science Academy! A great elementary school filled with lots of smiling faces and wonderful teachers! We had a lot of fun, but also learned a lot as we talked about not only the various types of animals found in the ocean but how the kids are going to be able to help save them in the future! I know we are going to be in good hands down the road based on the energy and heart these kids have for our environment! Way to go!

We returned to Blythe for another round of presentations! We love coming out to Blythe as this is the perfect example of what we want to achieve! A school set in the desert far from the oceans where marine science isnt given much of a chance! We take the opportunity and run with it!

    The kids seemed to love every minute of our talks and had great questions and lots of super insights! Hopefully, we answered all of their questions! We look forward to coming back again next year!

    Thanks to Taryn Beard for having us out to your classroom and thanks to your sister for being on our Honorary Board!

     I hope they are ready because I’m gonna stop by next week too and give them an extra half hour on Whales and other marine mammals!:)
