Hi All,
I want to let you all know about a great new direction I am taking this year.
I have gotten involved with a small private high school here in the mountains of Virginia where I live. I am guiding a group of teens through the process of building a 22' sailboat. Its a design I modified from a boat of Phil Bolger's.
Anyway, besides building the boat, which the kids are doing great with, I am teaching math and science class that uses sailboat modeling as a kind of focus for project based learning.
This is the first time in my life I have ever had a job doing something I am passionate about.
However, our boat is half done and we are about to run out of materials money.
I have started a kickstarter to try to make up this gap.

Does anyone have any advice for me on how to get the word out about this project?
Thanks,
David Reece
