The situation described previously is not uncommon in regards to "Shells for Teachers." Here in Jacksonville, the teachers are always looking for shells to use for classroom aids in teaching. They will take anything that we (the shell club) is willing to give. I encourage all of you (no matter where you live) to contact local school board authorities to see what you can do help these dedicated people. You don't know until you try! You probably don't need to mail shells halfway across the country - there is probably a need for your assistance locally - if you just check.
