Hi Frances,
I wasn’t sure how else to contact you as I don’t see an email address for you on your site… I’m from the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre and we’re looking for a group of kids to join us for a free school program at the end of June in celebration of our 5 year anniversary (and to celebrate our 500,000th visitor!). We thought inviting 5 year olds to do a program with us in honor of our fifth birthday would be neat, and your focus on the environment is a natural fit. If you’re interested, please email marketing@oceandiscovery.ca or call 250.665.7511. Thank you!
Christina
