Thank you so much for bringing Ocean’s Rock to the Mahwah Public Library. The displays were spectacular, you and your multimedia presentation explained everything so that all of the children could learn about the evolution of marine life, and the Ocean Dig was a great way to end the program. The program was a nice fit for the wide range of ages we have in Children’s Services and I received many compliments from the parents in the audience as well. I look forward to having Oceans, Dinosaurs and Gems Rock back next year!!! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Sincerely, Chris Wilson
