National Week of the Ocean members encourage year-round
ocean
exploration which encompasses from the arts to commerce,
from
history to foods, from endangered sea creatures to issues
such as
offshore drilling or ocean dumping.
Celebration kits can be ordered for $5.00 each for events
such as a campus-wide Week of the Ocean involving studies
in many subjects,
a School Marine Fair to showcase student projects in the
community
or a Community Festival such as that held annually
in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
