Around The Americas Under Way!

We would like to thank everyone who took time out last weekend to be on hand for the start of the Around The Americas voyage. Hundreds were there to cheer as Ocean Watch pulled away from Shilshole Bay Marina in Seattle to begin a 13-month circumnavigation of North and South America, all to raise awareness of the health of the world's oceans. The Des Moines Register in Iowa has published a great →profile piece on a member of the crew and you can follow the voyage at →AroundTheAmericas.org. As our teachers join the trip and begin meeting with the public along the way there will be many stories we'll share with you. If you have any questions, just send them to Feedback@PacSci.org and we'll pass them along.
