We emailed some great people who have supported our project with their pictures and video. Their words of encouragement and helpfulness helped make this site what it is. Please take some time to learn about those who supported us!

Dana Helmig: thank you for all of the outstanding pictures of the Indian River Lagoon and wildlife! Dana's pictures are proudly displayed throughout our site, and on our home pages. She taught herself how to take nature pictures. She uses a Canon Rebel camera for her shots. She loves wildlife and is also an artist and a very friendly person! We met her through flickr.com. Check out her other wonderful works.

Ed Perry: thank you for your amazing walking catfish video! We found the exciting catfish video on youTube! Mr. Perry was kind to let us share his video with you. You will agree that once you've seen a walking catfish, you've almost seen it all. Who knows, maybe one day we will see a pig fly! This video is wonderful and shows how the walking catfish got it's name and explains how it is considered to be an invasive species.

John Everett: thank you for the wonderful pictures! We found Mr. Everett at OceansArt.us and Technologysite.org. He has traveled the world and has shared his talent for taking wonderful pictures. He came from a fishing family, and is currently the president of Ocean Associates, Inc. His goal is to advance sustainable use of the oceans and the advancement of technology. He does this through his photos. He is also an inventor, and a knowledgeable person in the area of Climate Change. He even testified to congress!

We have worked with some great people and coaches. They have taught us a lot about the Indian River Lagoon, teamwork, and web site creation.

Robin Robb: Mrs. Robb is not only our ThinkQuest coach, but she is also our Quest teacher. She loves science and technology and involves us in a lot of fun activities. She helped us by allowing us to use some of her videos from her class. The horseshoe crab video is our favorite. We think it is informational as well as entertaining and something that we didn't think we could recreate.
