SUMMARY:Virtual Travel Journal: a casual connection to the Bahamas and shark conservation
DESCRIPTION:Let’s chillax together for an hour of dreamy adventure connection after work on Thursday\, June 4th\, from 6:00pm – 7:00pm PDT on Zoom. \nJillian Morris-Brake\, an acclaimed marine biologist\, award-winning underwater photographer\, and founder of Sharks4Kids\, has spent more than 20 years working directly with sharks. She’s on a mission to dismantle fear-based stereotypes that put these majestic\, vital ocean guardians at risk. \nDuring a recent dive trip to Bimini\, Bahamas\, to celebrate Black Futures Month with Gabby Shepard’s group\, I experienced the magic of swimming with vulnerable and critically endangered Great Hammerhead\, Caribbean Reef\, and Atlantic Nurse sharks and a super interesting presentation from Jillian. \nSharks have roamed the oceans for hundreds of millions of years (long before trees or dinosaurs existed!)\, yet misconceptions and Hollywood’s 50-year-old “Jaws effect” fear-mongering films have pushed many shark species to the brink of extinction. On June 4th for one hour from sunny Bimini\, Bahamas\, Jillian will share how education\, curiosity\, responsible ecotourism\, and KIDS are joining forces to rewrite that narrative. \n\n📷 by Janelle Van Ruiten \nJoin us and find out Thursday\, June 4th\, from 6:00pm – 7:00pm PDT on Zoom. \nThe gathering is free\, but we still need you to sign up so we can send you the Zoom link. \nSign me up! \nThis Virtual Travel Journal is completely kid-friendly\, so please bring the kids and share this event with all the parents you know! Jillian will share photos\, information\, stories\, and educational resources to inspire you and the next generation of ocean advocates (i.e. kids) that you invite for the hour. \nCome find out: \n\nDid a shark really touch my head?\nWhat’s it like to swim with Great Hammerhead sharks?\nDo Lemon sharks smell like lemons?\nAre Tiger sharks yellow?\nWhat do kids say Lemon sharks feel like?\nCan guided shark diving actually save local coastal economies?\n\nPull up for this free community gathering and find out on Thursday\, June 4\, 6:00pm – 7:00pm PDT. Bring your dinner\, evening sip\, and questions. \nWe’ll also have a giveaway! \nTake me to the Bahamas! \n\n📷 by Jonathan Galendez
