There has been a whirlwind of activity since we returned from the ATS Conference. The local YMCA has "booked" Emma to come give a talk to their daycare kids about her trip, her experiences in New Mexico, and her spiders. The Olathe Daily News just came and interviewed/photographed her for 2 hours... she wouldn't stop talking. The Kansas City Star and KCTV5 are going to interview her at the YMCA event. Put a big spider in a little girls hands and it becomes a huge ordeal. I can see how everything got started with Elizabeth now.
In addition to all of that, I'm going to start a local club called "Spider Kids". The focus will be on the future of our hobby... the children. I'm going to try to send out a monthly news letter giving information on a different species each month along with any letters/questions that the kids want to write and send in. If anyone has any experience/suggestions, I'm open for anything and everything. I'm going to include the info in the flyers I send out to the petstores and then I think I'll hit the school districts when school starts back up.
