Special Announcements:

Our SIC team has been working overtime to help everyone get set up and ready for the upcoming egg deliveries. Our fantastic crew of volunteers have completed the set-up and start-up of our 15 fresh water aquariums around the UP.  All our tanks are now cycling water and establishing good biology prior to egg delivery.

As a part of our15 school start-up, we replaced the 5 oldest chillers/pumps and delivered a Water Python System plus 2 battery back-up aerators, and necessary operating supplies to each school. Thank you to all of our volunteers, teachers, and donors who continue to make this wonderful program so effective.
