                                      The Pamphlet

     Visitors at the Jane and David Allen Manatee Exhibit need to be informed about manatees in general as well as Hugh and Buffett, the sea mammals they will be observing in captivity. Sometimes there are long lines, and the management feels that people would both enjoy and benefit from an informative and fun pamphlet that they can read in line and take home as a keepsake from their visit. The second part of this application process involves the creation of such a pamphlet by all people interested in the position here at Mote Marine Laboratories. A sample pamphlet format is attached which indicates the proper placement of all of the required elements listed here.
