Feb 19 night dockside exploration led by marine naturalists

Foss Waterway Seaport "Pier Peer" Night Adventure

Saturday - March 19, 2011

8:00 pm to 9:00 pm

Foss Waterway Seaport, 705 Dock Street, Tacoma, WA 98402

Come discover spring's secrets in Puget Sound this Saturday at "Pier Peer"
on Foss Waterway Seaport's docks - the last event in the Tacoma series! Join
People For Puget Sound and Foss Waterway Seaport naturalists out on the
docks for a night time adventure.  We'll lower submersible lights into the
dark water to draw amazing creatures..giant marine worms, colorful sea
slugs, sea stars, larval fish, jelly fish and maybe even luminescent squids
darting by.  Plus, we'll have a diver bring up live critters for you to see
aquatic members of the food web up close!

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

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.  For more
information, contact Gabby Byrne mailto:gbyrne@pugetsound.org , (360)
