Dear Educators! Well, I hope we don't get flamed for this posting, but I didn't want any Educators to miss out on this great opportunity. At the end of this month, the Junior Women's Club of Gainesville, Florida, will conduct a "chance drawing" that will send two lucky people on a fantastic week-long Rainforest and Sea Turtle Education Package to Costa Rica. The drawing will take place on June 25, 1999, so there is still plenty of time for you to register. The winner and a companion will receive round-trip airline tickets from Miami to San Jose, Costa Rica. You'll spend a few days in style at the beautiful Selva Verde Lodge -- where you can explore the flora and fauna of the tropical rainforest. Next, you'll travel to Tortuguero. As a guest at Caribbean Conservation Corporation's biological field station, you'll have a four-day adventure participating in CCC's leatherback or green turtle monitoring program, the longest running program of its kind in the world, where you will get hands-on sea turtle research and ecology experience. All lodging, meals and transportation in Costa Rica will be provided. This package is valued at approximately $3,600. The winner will be announced on the CCC web site the week of June 28th, 1999. Register by purchasing numbered chance drawing tickets ($5 each or five for $20). Tickets can be purchased online at http://cccturtle.org/win_trip.htm or you can call (352) 373-6441 to order by phone. There is a minimum order of 5 tickets ($20) when ordering with a credit card. This drawing is being sponsored by the Gainesville Junior Women's Club and by Holbrook Travel. Proceeds benefit the Caribbean Conservation Corporation. As an added incentive, you should know that only about 200 tickets have been sold to date. At this rate, if you purchase 5 tickets, you will have about 5 chances out of 500 to win this trip! Not bad odds. Good Luck!
