Gulf Islands National Seashore has two traveling trunks for local elementary and middle school students. The trunks include a curriculum-based (Florida Sunshine State Curriculum Standards) lesson guide, reference resources and hands on materials (books, brochures, posters, videos, audiocassettes, coastal animal samples and navigational tools of early ocean exploration). There is no charge for the trunks.
