Today is the big day my first official parade. Just for word through Kirsten that Isla Bonita school will be at the parade – very exciting.

Sending a big shout out to the folks at Hamilton County Department of Environmental Services
Sue M sent me 5 lesson plan pdf files and a document of websites with some good information and downloadable materials for me to check out. I will be making these available in some form to all schools who would like a copy preferably via email or by flash drive directly to school computers. I am very grateful for any and all help – so much to learn in this area.

Was chatting belizegail and purdygrl in mini chat this morning.

belizegail mentioned she was getting ready to go up to Hope Creek with some donated supplies and that the the greatest need is for kids stuff right now. Items such as kids clothing, baby formula, hygiene stuff, baby diapers. You can drop donations off at the Lion’s Den in town today – items are being delivered tomorrow.

Isla Bonita and Holy Cross kids marched through town with artistic hand made signs. Both schools were enthusiastic and made lot’s noise to let people know they are serious about reusing recycling and keeping Ambergris Caye clean.
