Hi everyone!

I've created this page to post all sorts of great resources and updates.

For some current information on National Estuaries Day (Sept. 27th!!), as well as information on estuaries in general, try this link: [|National Estuaries Day information]

=December 16, 2008: //__Big News!__//= We're having a contest! The **__//Water, Wildlife & People// Drawing Contest__** will be held as a "feeder contest" for the upcoming __Long Island Sound Drawing Contest__. Each year, the Long Island Sound Foundation has a contest for all Connecticut children in Grades K-6 for their upcoming year LIS calendar. We will be working on these entries as part of our January school-to-school visit. Entries from each school will be submitted to Mrs. Smith for independent judging (by some of my EASTCONN colleagues), and the winning submission from each school will be submitted to the LIS Calendar Contest. In addition, those students whose submissions win the __**//Water, Wildlife & People// Drawing Contest**__ will each win a prize from Mrs. Smith. Additional information will follow, but you may find specific technical requirements at the [|LIS Drawing Contest] website.
