Tick Tock...the Cruiser's leaving the dock (Sunday). At 10:00 am the TidePool Cruiser leaves the Santa Monica Pier headed for Quartzsite, Arizona. This is the first time that the Windows-On-Our-Waters Environmental Education (WOOWEE) Program will be operating outside the state of California.
Since Earth Day of 2002 more than 50,000 elementary school students have participated in the WOOWEE Program when the TidePool Cruiser visited their campuses.
Beginning on March 30th students in in-land communities from Arizona to West Virginia will learn about conserving our aquatic and marine environments. Living sea stars, sea urchins and other Pacific Ocean creatures will make the trip in the TidePool Cruiser's Travelin' Tide Pool Touch Tank. Final destination...Mystic, CT We're due to arrive on May 5th.
