Catalina MPA Signage
Collaborative members created a unique regulatory signage template based on other South Coast signage that is both informative and aesthetically pleasing.
MPA Training for Catalina Educators
The Catalina Collaborative, in conjunction with the Los Angeles Collaborative, held a special day of training for environmental educators that work for outdoor camps and other educational institutions who work on and off the Island. The one-day Catalina MPA Symposium at the USC Wrigley Marine Science Center in Two Harbors provided educators with an opportunity to test out a new MPA Speakers Series and discuss ways to integrate MPA education into their daily operations.
