A special thanks to Avalon for providing ground transportation.
AND, a very special THANK YOU to all those who supported the Dolphin Project in our efforts to help dolphins worldwide. This is – and has always been – our mandate, since our inception on Earth Day, 1970. With September 1 fast approaching, heralding our return to the cove made famous by the Academy Award-winning movie “The Cove,” your support couldn’t be more needed, or appreciated.
