What does shark science look like in the field? Last week, MAR joined Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS) for a day of their summer program, giving participants a firsthand look at shark research in action. 🦈🌊

While on board, students learned how shark tagging supports marine conservation efforts, how researchers collect and use data in the field, and why sharks are essential to healthy ocean ecosystems.

Thank you to MISS for the opportunity to be part of this incredible program and for your commitment to increasing access to marine science education and opportunities. 💙

Thank you to everyone who joined 200 Muslim Women Who Care and MAR for the Branchton Park Ribbon Cutting Ceremony! 🎉

Alongside Hillsborough County, we celebrated all of the work that has gone into improving the park over the last few months. With more than 175 native plants added to the pollinator garden, butterfly-shaped educational signs, and a beautiful pavement mural designed by Ameena Khan, we're excited to bring these new features to the community.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this project possible, we can't wait to see the park enjoyed by residents, families, and visitors for years to come. 🌿🦋

Spotlight: Meet Haley, MAR's new Project Coordinator!

Haley grew up in the Chicagoland area and moved to St. Petersburg in 2016 to attend Eckerd College. She chose to attend Eckerd with the hopes of being able to learn about and experience the many unique ecosystems of Southwest Florida, and was not disappointed! She graduated in 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Studies, and has spent her time since then working in different positions within the environmental field. She brings a unique combination of remote research and in-person environmental education experience to her position as a field assistant at MAR, and is so excited to start supporting MAR’s mission of connecting people with nature!

Haley is also very passionate about wildlife rehabilitation and enjoys volunteering with the Seaside Seabird Sanctuary in her free time. Caring for injured birds that come through the hospital provides tangible motivation to keep working towards environmental regeneration, for the benefit of the many species that call Florida’s ecosystems home!

When not working or volunteering, Haley enjoys spending time outside, making pottery, and playing with her two cats, Mouse and Maple.

We are so excited to welcome Haley to the MAR team! 🌳💚

Tampa Bay is more connected to the global ocean than most people realize. The species that call our waters home, the choices we make on land, the actions we take as a community, it all ripples outward.
