Marine Biology program at Boone High School

Let's help them do it right!!!

Boone High School is starting a new Marine Biology Program this fall.  Their budget is tight so they asked if GIRS could help out with gathering the some of the necessary equipment. Let's show them how great this club can be and get them set up with some great tanks, equipment, and livestock for this program. 

If you would like to help out by donating some equipment, live rock, livestock, or anything else it would be greatly appreciated by the students and their teacher Shannon. 

Keep an eye on this thread for more details on the program and ways you may be able to help.
