Catalina Trip

Tomorrow at 4 o’clock, Team Marine coach Mr. Kay, along with members Kalon, Ivan, Annie, Cassandra, and Angelina will be loading a boat on our way to Catalina Island. For roughly four days, we will snorkel, hike, and explore the island with the Hawaii team and Bag Team, as they join us on the last day of our trip. We are looking forward to hearing the other team’s projects as we will also be presenting Bag Team’s research to the group and Car Team’s project summary. We can’t wait to see what Catalina offers!

Team Marine’s Celebratory Party

On June 13, 2012, Team Marine held a party to celebrate our year’s worth of hard work and achievements. From the QuikSCience Challenge to the Annual Sustainable Santa Monica Student Art Contest, we had a successful year in raising awareness about plastic pollutions and tail pipe emissions. We celebrated by eating a cake made by Kellie Abbott. We would like to congratulate all of our seniors for their help and dedication to the team. Live sustainably.

The Rice Crispy Treat is a model of the 1971 Volkswagen Beetle, which has almost reached its completion stage in the electric conversion process. The BP oil logo with “Epic Fail” written below it, pokes fun at the gas companies for their past failures, including oil spills and lack of environmental awareness.

End-of-year TM party!!

At the end of each season, Team Marine has a potluck party where we sign yearbooks, watch the premier of TM/marine bio slideshow, and announce the winners of the “players’ choice” and “MVP” awards. Congratulations to Adrienne Hino for winning the “players’ choice” award and Alexis Saez for being named this year’s MVP. Even though the 2011-2012 season is over, Team Marine’s fight isn’t! We’ll continue to meet and do great things over the summer!

Thanks guys for such a great year!
