Chesapeake Bay Foundation day trips to Merrideth Creek and sailing on the skipjack. In 1996, Dale received a personal award from the Maryland Ornithological Society to study birds on Hog Island, Maine at the Audubon Camp. This past year she received a grant from Montgomery County Public Schools for Innovative Lessons to build a second aquaculture system.
Projects range from stream restoration to the benefits of composting.
Develop a new science research course at Watkins Mill High School so that students will have a greater opportunity to perform long term experiments. She would also like to do some consulting in science education in the state of Maryland. Dale Johnsen was one of the 14 teachers that attended the Aquaculture in Action Workshop this past summer. She is currently working with the Dept. of Natural Resources raising largemouth bass for a restocking program in the Patuxent River. If so, send us some information and we would be glad to look it over.
