A Whale of a Tail
Opportunity Description
http://frank.mtsu.edu/~mtsucee/
With a life-sized model of an adult Humpback Whale, the Whale Man brings Tennessee's landlocked students a bit closer to the ocean. Whale of a Tail programs are available to elementary schools in the MTSU service area free of charge. The program consists of an assembly-type program that is conducted in the school's gymnasium (after all, the whale is 50 feet long!).
