Reef Ball Foundation, Inc.

Your donation goes to support the core mission of:
Reef Ball Foundation, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit

A Reef Ball is an artificial reef module that imitates the appearance and function of natural coral reefs, a coral seed. The Reef Balls have openings and canals that make up an ideal living environment for a great variety of marine species. Special concrete mix, with a pH similar to seawater, assures compatibility with the ocean. The Reef Balls vary in composition, thickness, size and height, so that each module is different for various goals and applications, just like natural reefs. Varying surface patterns and textures enhance marine life settlement. Reef Balls are extremely stable because eighty percent of the ball's weight is within one foot of the bottom outside edge. This results in a greater ability to withstand movement and destruction during storms. Reef Balls are superior to other artificial reefs because of their stability and they do not leach. Over 100,000 Reef Balls have been deployed worldwide in over 1,000 different projects.

We have two major grant programs, Reefs Around The Nation and Reefs Around The World that provide schools, other non-profit groups, clubs and other environmental interests with the molds and training needed to build and deploy Reef Balls in there areas.

See our website, www.reefball.org for a complete listing of all our works.

The Little Copenhagen Mermaid.

When I was young and Santa old
And children did as they were told
I’d gaze at fish a-cycling along the Milky Way
Behind them pigs would loop the loop
As scented breezes cooled my soup
And elephants, both white and pink, a-whistling would play;

In rhubarb trees they’d build their nests,
As politicians combed their crests
While working for ‘The Populus’ throughout the live-long day.
Now Candy mountains, butter too,
Have dropped us in the Irish stew
And wine lakes, shining shore to shore, tempt us to sail away

From truth, responsibility,
And wise but dull maturity,
Straight to the sirens call are we drawn closer every day.
In pea-green boats upon a lake
of lucozade our thirst we slake
while breathing clouds of candy-floss the golden geese will lay

then we will gorge on golden eggs
as we bestride the world on legs
made out of malted-whisky kegs we flew down from Strathspey.
And foaming ‘champers’ at the mouth
We’ll strip the world from north to south
And calling Truth a blabbermouth, we’ll sing, “Calloo, Callay.”

And then the dreaded Jabberwock,
we’ll meet before we’ve taken stock
that nothing is there left to hock to pay the pipes to play
and nonsense will the last word be
at parties where the mushroom tea
is brewed by madder hats than we. Let’s desperately pray!

B.T.Phillips. 11.01.2010

I am wondering what it would be worth to have a scallop dragger licence eliminated from fishing the ocean forever? Remember 20 feet wide of heavy drags being towed 5 days a week, min 50 tows a day, 10 weeks a year for at LEAST the next 30 years
Would it not be a better option if this boat would be deploying reef balls instead of destroying the ocean to make a living?
