The Cayuga Lake Floating Classroom Project provides educational lake cruises
and "Trout In The Classroom" programs for nearly 2500 students annually. It
also offers public eco-cruises and summer "Water Wizzards" camp programs. The
Project is a collaboration of local governments around the Lake, various
educational institutions, non-profits and local business. It depends on a
volunteer committee of representatives from all these sectors, and on a network
of community resources. The Project is growing rapidly, and we need to grow
the support network. We need people like you!
