MMR Save Whale Tail: Sea of Whale Tails

Event: Sea of Whale Tails - Hervey Bay Whale Festival
Location: Seafront Oval, The Esplanade, Hervey Bay, Qld
Date: 2pm, Saturday 8th August 2009

We would like to invite all local schools & community members to take part in the ‘Sea of Whale Tails’, as part of the educational program with Marine Mammal Research.com

The SWT project encourages communities to promote the protection of whales around the world. This project helps celebrate the annual humpback whale migration & conservation of all whales in Australian waters.

Cut out, colour & decorate your tail, write your name or a message on the back of the tail, wave it at the ocean to welcome the whales to our shore! Then come & place your whale tail at Seafront Oval Hervey Bay from 2pm on Sat. 8th August for an art installation for the Whale Festival!

By creating a Sea of Whale Tails, we welcome the whales passing by the area & celebrate the importance of these marine mammals to Hervey Bay. Community members & whale watch operators will help create this Sea of Whale Tails!
