On the Caribbean Coast

Hello parents,

As a reminder, the group is returning on Friday evening to Newark International Airport. Below you will find the return flight information for your convenience.

Continental Airlines 26 Jun 2009
Depart San Jose (SJO) Airport at 1:45 PM on Flight 1761.
Arrive Newark (EWR) Airport at 9:00 PM.

Parents are asked to meet their sons and daughters at the airport. No transportation back to Dalton will be provided. Let either Michael Malloy or Ross Wehner of World Leadership School (303-679-3412) know if you have any questions.

I also wanted to add that the group is now on its way this morning to the Pacuare Nature Reserve on Costa Rica's Caribbean coast. After a 3-hour bus ride and a 20-minute boat ride across a mangrove lagoon, the students will arrive at the science station. The station is right on a white sand beach that is lined with palm trees. This beach receives thousands of Leatherback and Green turtles each year, who come here to lay their eggs in the middle of the night before resuming their year-round migrations around the Caribbean and Atlantic oceans. The volunteers' job is to help scientific researchers assemble data about nesting events and also protect the eggs so that as many hatch as possible.
