"HEART WALK SEPTEMBER 20th" ALL RIGHTs RESERVED

"We welcome those  who can sit calmly watching men in steel cages getting their adrenaline and heart rate up.For the most part they  are  the ones in shark cages chumming for shark response. However, women do enjoy diving with   sharks  in what we call "shark pits."  Florida sees it's share of sharks and just last week we watched a 6 ft. tiger shark being pulled out of the ocean. Renters decided it was best to put him back in the water, although personally after seeing and being part of the shark frenzy world I prefer to  leave sharks to wildlife officials if they so choose to put a non-endangered shark back in the ocean while youngsters play about in the same area so be it.  Tourists don't realize how many sharks are out there, swimming right below you or right beside you.   So be brave don't let a shark get you down and get that cardio work out by  swimming. Seeing pollution in the Atlantic Ocean of late has bummed me out, seems no one will listen until we can no longer swim, surf or relax due to the massive amount of pollution found at the beaches. We were told whiting were dying in droves at Hanna Park and one kindly sole cleaned them up so the children could enjoy the beach with their family for the day - AWESOME!"


"For me SHARK WEEK brings shock from head to  toe.  We wish Discovery would invite some of the women who have their own shark attack stories to be told for the young ladies. For girls who need extra educational and enlightening stories about  gender and how women and girls also escape sharks, and if allowed do some pretty great things.  GIRLS need to to hear women speak out  about their own shark stories if we expect the next generation of women to become more interactive with producers of this show and others but its probably best to have a connect their also. As always women bring different insights and life experiences to this table, invaluable insights. WOMEN FISH TOO!"

"SHARKS seem to be a prevalent theme around these parts well actually around the world sharks abound.  This is the time of year that most keep a watchful eye while in the water yet this should never overwhelm those who enjoy the ocean. Never let fear keep you from diving head first into the water. The ocean while refreshing also teaches swimming which is a type of fulfilling individual skill and once learned (like bike riding) will never be forgotten and on occasion can help save lives."

"For our family the ocean has taught us much while we remember family fish fries, crabbing with chicken necks, hush puppies,and sitting under the umbrella at the shore.  We would watch friends surf, body surf, play with  Frisbees, corkball, catch  footballs  and throw huge 4th of July parties.  Mom and Dad had a lot of patience while relatives and friends of friends stopped by for refreshments and good conversations with much love being shown and appreciated." 

"So during these next few months enjoy family, friends, dogs and the ocean which help keep us all aware of just how wonderful and miraculous these beautiful things become in the force of life."

" Dr. Guggenheim and Anderson Cooper were on CBS last night and even though we knew how badly sharks are being depleted the number of 90% loss of sharks worldwide in the last 15 years was jaw dropping. Queen's Garden in Cuba was breathtaking and makes all of us want to get on a boat and dive the reef.  But alas we never knew how spectacular the underwater footage of a healthy reef would look.  Or how white Cuba' sand that looks like sugar and is warm to the touch.The sharks were abundant as were the Goliath Grouper and  the coral  was exquisite. Cooper got the gravy on that assignment and we all got a lesson on the ocean, its creatures and it's health! Queen's Garden is protected and they are vigilant about the rules of no fishing so don't purchase your airline ticket yet!"

TEACH SKILLS


We would like to take this space to thank Volcom and Daniel Terry of Volcom Marketing for all of their help with our projects here on A1A. He has been a true pleasure to work with! When the North Beach Lifeguard Chair was built the need for lifeguards was building with a growing community.  We look forward to working with you again in the near future.
