Nature Foundation will once again start its after school Snorkel Club Program on Wednesday April 27th 2011. The Nature Foundation, in a continued effort to educate and stress the important role the youth plays in the future of nature conservation on this island, established the Snorkel Club program with the aim of educating local youth in snorkeling skills and marine conservation. Children will be given a total of ten lessons with each lesson consisting of both theory and practical elements. Lessons will include snorkeling skills, marine naturalist courses, introduction to SCUBA diving, hiking tours, and a special closing activity. Children who attend the Snorkel Club are given a copy of the How to Snorkel Manual, a Nature Foundation T-shirt, Fish Identification Cards and wetsuits for sun protection, all of which they can keep. After graduating from Snorkel Club the children will have the opportunity to continue on to become Nature Foundation Junior Rangers. The Snorkel Club program was made possible through the generous denotation and support from the TELEM Group of Companies; The Scuba Shop; and Island Water World, in particular the Dive Buddy division and manager Mr. Ivor Azille for donating the snorkel sets. Interested parents can contact the Nature Foundation at 5444267 or via email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Snorkel Club is held every Wednesday from two to four pm and every Saturday from nine to eleven am and costs only twenty five guilders for the ten lessons. Parents are urged to register their children early due to limited space.
