1. HAVE A PARTY AND HELP YOUR FAVORITE REEF WITH THE PARK BUDDY PROGRAM
Become a Park Buddy like Bill and Alice Miller. Last year, Bill and Alice decided they wanted to make a difference in one of their favorite dive spots...Cozumel. So, they had a barbecue at their house with a slide show. Bill's close up of an arrow crab on a ruby red sponge stole the show. Family and friends paid a nominal entrance fee and raised more than $500 to help Cozumel Park Rangers buy new patrolling equipment. Pick your favorite reef and start planning your party today..
