School Weather Station Update

Thanks to the many people who contacted us about interest in supporting a local weather station and shared resources. Through our request, we learned of an existing school-based weather station program at UVic created by Andrew Weaver that is more than we could have hoped for - complete with equipment installation, a sophisticated network, and K-7 curriculum resources for linking with science and math. 

We have put our idea for a community meeting "on hold" as we pursue permission from our School District to participate in this existing program. We will share more info and opportunities with the Thetis Island community once we are farther along.
