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!
