Oh and I forgot to mention!

 

It's also a great way to gauge public interest.

Haha, so it looks like my brother has been doing some promoting for me!

 

It's true there are better ways to go about it, but remember NG needs to MAKE

money too, not just give it away to grantees like us. And this is great promotion

for causes that go unnoticed by the general public.

 

On the plus side, when the project does happen, there's a very good chance we'll get this place

made into a Marine Reserve. I'm going to do my project either way, I just won't have the

funding I would like to have if I don't "win."
