can come true! To commemorate<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Club</strong>’s <strong>25</strong>th Anniversary,<br />
we are holding a first-time-ever donation drawing called A <strong>Manatee</strong> Is My Namesake. The donation drawing starts<br />
now and will run through <strong>Manatee</strong> Awareness Month 2006 (November 30, 2006).<br />
The only qualification to enter <strong>the</strong> drawing is that your <strong>Save</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Manatee</strong> <strong>Club</strong> membership must be active.<br />
Lapsed members or non-members are not eligible to enter <strong>the</strong> donation drawing. Just fill out <strong>the</strong> form below<br />
and send it to us with your donation of $10 per name.<br />
This is how it works:<br />
One of <strong>the</strong> baby manatees born at Blue Spring State Park during <strong>the</strong> 2006/2007 winter season will be named after<br />
you (or someone you love) if your entry is drawn. The baby manatee will <strong>the</strong>n become part of our Blue Spring<br />
manatee adoption program.* The calf’s biography will include information about you and you will be mentioned<br />
on our website and in our newsletters.<br />
You will have <strong>the</strong> great satisfaction of knowing that:<br />
• a real manatee calf living in <strong>the</strong> wild is named after you<br />
• many people from around <strong>the</strong> globe will adopt <strong>the</strong> calf (who will be <strong>the</strong> youngest adoptee we’ve ever had),<br />
so you’ll be helping to enlist even more people to support manatee protection.*<br />
• much-needed funds to protect manatees will be raised for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Club</strong> (a portion of <strong>the</strong> proceeds will be donated to<br />
Blue Spring State Park for <strong>the</strong>ir manatee protection efforts).<br />
* Sometimes, it is difficult to identify manatee calves as <strong>the</strong>y grow up in <strong>the</strong> wild. The calf will become part of <strong>the</strong><br />
adoption program if he/she is able to be identified and <strong>the</strong>re is enough information so that members can follow along.<br />
