May 2016

The Trail Tales Intertidal Monitoring Interpretation Station will be on the Tommy Thompson Trail at the west end of the trestle today. While citizen science volunteers sample along the shoreline, Trail Tales  docents will answer your questions and explain what is going on with fun interactive activities.

This year the Academy is pleased to have well known photographer and environmentalist Chris Jordan as our Keynote Speaker. Chris' work includes documenting the tragedies of Midway Island's starving albatrosses who mistake our floating plastic for food. Chris’ powerful photographic artworks tell a story using data and common objects to create amazing images. 

Following the keynote, choose from a variety of interesting programs and interpretive walks on the Salish Sea marine environment and culture. Teachers - free continuing education clock hours will be available.

Registration opens March 14th.
