Water Project Calender

For my water project, final project, my partners and I are going to create a collaborative Tide Calender for 2009. We are going to incorporate pictures, informative facts, quick did you know facts, the tides, and important environmental dates.

My research question that I am going to use for all three of my months is," What is the port of San Diego doing to improve certain beaches in San Diego?" The beaches I choose to research more into is San Diego Bay, Imperial Beach/Chulva Vista, and Seaport Village.

For our materials, We don't need many physical items, but our project is going to require a lot of work. Were going to need a camera with a high megapixel to take high quality pictures. We are also going to need many students to help critique our calender for aesthetics and for content. This is important because we need to produce a high quality of work. We also are going to need a printing company to print our calender.

FedEx Kinkos has a calender printing option, and it is $20, per calender. The thing with this is that you use their template. We are still looking for a less expensive option where we can use our own template that we can create. We are also looking for sponsors to have an ad in our calender to help fund the calender. Our calender will be on sale during our exhibition.
