Welcome to the HOEC Blog

Welcome to the Hands-On Explorer Challenge trip blog! The departure date for the Kids Expedition team is around the corner, on July 16. That's when 15 kids and two teachers, all winners of the contest, fly to Australia. During their 13-day expedition to Queensland and Tasmania, they'll snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef, get up close and personal with koalas, learn about Aboriginal peoples and their culture, talk with Aussie cowboys, meet Tasmanian students and plant trees for their joint project to save the Tasmanian devil, and more.
