 FT. LAUDERDALE, FL, July 10, 2010-- Angels of the Seas has launched a new conservation contest, enabling grass-roots organizations, individuals, conservation groups, tournaments, corporations and more to compete for honors for their conservation efforts. Founder, Betty Bauman, created the campaign to increase the numbers of conservation projects, explaining, "It's kind of like the Nobel prize, but for honors, not money,"

Bauman comments, "Right now, especially with the Gulf Oil spill, the nation has become focused on the importance of marine conservation. It's time for those who make a difference to be recognized."

In conjunction with the non-profit Save Our Seas Foundation www.saveourseas.com, the  Angels of the Seas Conservation Initiative provides honors grass-roots organizations, individuals, conservation groups, tournaments, corporations for their conservation efforts. Web space will be provided for contestants to upload documentation of progress.

Bauman operates a program for women to enter fishing through the "Ladies, Let's Go Fishing!" seminar series, generating more than 6,000 graduates who have been introduced to conservation techniques. She comments, "We have opened this contest to the marine industry and organizations, as the more people we have starting conservation projects, the better it is for marine life."

            Initial information and the entry form can be found at www.LadiesLetsGoFishing.com until the new website is completed. Entry is free for most categories. Final awards are planned for the Miami International Boat Show February 17-21, 2011. Interim Honors will be made at the "Ladies, Let's Go Fishing!" Islamorada seminar at Holiday Isle on Nov. 12.
