In Your Back Yard Contest Results!


Congratulations to Victorio and Claire are in order!  Their submissions to the California Academy of Sciences contest, "In Your Back Yard" won some accolades!

Claire's The Kelp Forest won an honorable mention, while Victorio's picture of The Jellies won 3rd prize and $50!

Considering there were 150 submissions, that's amazing!  Check out the link to the gallery if you would like to see some stunning photos taken by  kids aged 8-12.  Their work will be exhibited as part of the Children's Gallery at the Grand Re-Opening of the Academy of Sciences on September 27, 2008 and throughout the inaugural year.  Be sure to stop by and get a good look!
