Teachers' ResourcesThe Virginian-Pilot has a blog that will be continuously updated throughout the 2009 Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race (GCBSR). Photographer Steve Earley and reporter Aaron Applegate join the crew of the 122-foot schooner Virginia for the 20th Anniversary GCBSR. Read their blog, Aboard Schooner Virginia, for continuous updates. For more than 40 years, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) has worked to increase awareness of the tremendous problems facing the nation’s largest estuary. By educating the public about the many issues affecting the health of the Bay, they encourage a greater public commitment to protecting and restoring our rivers and streams. CBF’s environmental education programs for students and teachers, which put more than 40,000 citizens a year in touch with the Bay, are a cornerstone of their efforts to improve water quality. They also publish reports, post the latest news articles on their Web site, list Bay facts and other resources for further information, and share tips on what you can do in your own community. The Elizabeth River Project is dedicated to restoring the Elizabeth River to the highest practical level of environmental quality through government, business and community partnerships. Their education programs include River Star Schools, Princess Elizabeth, youth presentations and adult education. |
