Sea World: Welcome to See Beneath

When a large corporation like "SeaWorld" gets behind your non-profit, you have reached a level of significance and impact that is to be admired. Casey, Gerin and Jim's "See Beneath Inc.," was invited by SeaWorld, Inc. to have a booth at the "4th Annual ACT Today! for Military Families Festival" at Mission Bay. 

With "SeaWorld Park" of San Diego providing the backdrop for the pop-up tents and bandstand that were framing the festival grounds, Aiko and Egor's booth drew lots of attention. As usual, the life size mascots of Aiko, Egor and Wade were a big hit with kids and their parents, who are eager to take photos of the See Beneath Mascots. 

I once again enjoyed masquerading as Aiko, and then a little later, Egor, posing for photos with the kids, "chees-ing it up" for their parent's cell phone snapshots. Registration fees for the 10K race that started at 7:00 am were donations to "ACT" = "Autism Care and Treatment" for Military Families. 

Tecolote Shores Park was decorated with banners and live music, as families strode around talking with the people in our community who provide services for autistic kids.

Most of the serious 10K runners headed for the Stone Brewery Beer Garden at 9:00 am (beer at 9 am?), but the true focus of the event was for families to learn more about San Diego's community of Autism support systems.

It's 2014 and the Team at "See Beneath" have been working overtime to release the first season of the "Aiko and Egor" teaching videos. They also are developing an APP, and as the year unfolds it may just be that the APP and the first season release at the same time.


The significance of connecting with SeaWorld and military families emphasizes the strides that have been made by the See Beneath Founders. With your continued support financially, and the opportunities at Aiko and Egor's doorstep when the first product is released, this organization will keep rolling.

I look forward to giving what I can with my time and in the future I am going to donate the proceeds of my next book "Santa's Brother". I encourage you to help in any way you can and to consider getting more involved by sharing your talents with See Beneath, Inc.
