2. Project Togo (yes this is math - just different)

This is a real-life problem with real life-skills involved. It’s real, but treat it as a puzzle.

[Togo was a sled-dog who delivered help to people in Nome, Alaska during a diptheria outbreak. The movie is pretty good. Balto was another heroic sled dog on that run.]

Now I need to make a delivery run with medical supplies. The first bunch of face shields are ready, and I need to deliver to the islands. The dog won’t do it. He’s kinda lazy.

I need to use the ferries to get to:

• Swartz Bay Victoria (drop off for Piers Island)
• Galiano
• Mayne
• Saturna
• Saltspring (pick up supplies)
• Home to Pender

How can I do it? You need:

The Ferry Schedules

• Departure means where you leave from.
• Order doesn’t matter, but I need to get home to Pender (no overnights)
• You pick the day of the week
• It might take 2 days… but I hope not.
• By the end of this you’ll really know how to read a ferry schedule
• This is important ‘cause we live on ISLANDS!!
• If I need to change boats, that takes at least 20 minutes
• I may not use your exact schedule, but it will help
• Yes, you can work with a friend.
• Yes, this can be frustrating. But getting good with schedules will save you from getting stranded, which happened to my older children several times. It sucks.
