Welcome Back S.A.F.E.Oceans!!

Hello Everyone, I hope you all had a great winter break. I definitely can say that mine was worthwhile. I got to go on a 7 day cruise to the Caribbean where we saw all kinds of animals on our snorkeling and scuba diving trips...a much needed vacation. Anyway, I wanted to welcome you all back and hope that everyone is excited about this semester. I feel that this semester will be very successful for our group and we will begin having our weekly meetings on Jan. 29th. I am booking rooms and times right now. Most likely, the time will be Mondays from 6-7pm...I am not sure on the room yet; I will let everyone know as soon as it is confirmed. We thought of a few new ideas for this semester and will be discussing them with everyone at the first meeting. Attention all officers: please try to make it to our first meeting, there is a lot we need to discuss...if you can not make it, please email me so we can work out a different time: oceanadventurer@mail.utexas.edu
Our first meeting will consist of a meet and greet and introduction for new members. I will be updating this website next week to inform everyone of the meeting place and official time...in the meantime, check out the movie I made about our group...hopefully we can do more like this for our conservation issues. Till then, take care!
