Join People For Puget Sound and Foss Waterway Seaport naturalists out on the docks for a night time adventure this Saturday. We'll lower submersible lights into the dark water to see the food web in action..giant marine worms, colorful sea slugs, sea stars, larval fish, jelly fish and maybe even luminescent squids darting by, or harbor seals swinging by for a snack. This is education and exploration at its most exciting! After all critters are returned to their watery home, we humans will retire to warm up with hot cocoa and talk about what we've seen. Event is free for Foss Waterway Seaport or People For Puget Sound members. $10 event fee may be deducted from membership cost if you join the Seaport that night. Non-member adults, $10. Advance reservations are required; space is limited. PLEASE RSVP to save your spot. <http://pugetsound.org/../forms/event_rsvp> <Visit http://pugetsound.org/forms/event_rsvp> This is a family-friendly event but we advise parents not to bring children under 8. All children must be supervised by an adult. Please dress for the weather (and damp docks) and bring your own flashlights.
