These students participated in a three hour training at the Whale Sanctuary in Kihei on Thurs., Nov. 13th. This workshop taught ocean users how to identify the five major threats to reefs, how to discern them from natural interactions, and how to report them. They are now able to help their community by keeping an eye out for signs of change when visiting the reef. Early detection of these events is important in protecting our reef resources. The students that participated were Kialoa Rano, Shaina Kalalau-Johnson, Jaelyn Navarro, Daysan Gonsalves, Llyrik Min, and Kana Mateaki.
