Good news everyone! </Prof. Farnsworth>

 Dr. D.’s class at Creekside Elementary School in Milledgeville GA will be getting their aquarium project materials through Donors Choose plus bonus aquarium equipment kindly donated by Georgia Aquarium because we finally got them over the funding  line!  It was a scoche late for the official Ocean Bloggers United for Education campaign, but its more important that the kids got funded.  So thanks to those who helped, and to everyone else - next year I’m comin’ to get you…

Readers of this blog helped two education projects complete their funding goals by donating over $200.  That means that 460 students will learn about marine science in 2011 and beyond, studnts who otherwise would not have had that opportunity.  I am thrilled to have been part of the endeavour and have been amazed at the amount of giving spirit among readers and the other ocean bloggers.  Everyone should send special love to DeepSeaNews who coordinated the OBUE campaign.

The prize winners from the first projects I targeted will hear from me as soon as the final numbers are olffically tallied.

Thanks folks - Rock on!
