During December, OceansWatch member James Gregory and his crew on "Lorena" distributed 20 sets of school supplies (lap desks, paper, pencils, books etc.) in cloth school bags along the Rio Dulce in Guatemala. They also delivered OceansWatch posters and brochures at Texan Bay while sailing down the river on their way to Belize. Jim and the Lorena crew will be in Belize for most of January, where they will meet up with other OW members coming to Belize for OWNA strategic project planning meetings from the 12th to 17th. James plans to distribute another 40 school supply bags in February as they sail Lorena back up the Dulce in Guatemala, and is planning to deliver another 200 kits on his next voyage to the area.
