WHAT PEOPLE SAY

I basically grew up in the aquarium. Now I’m helping restore my species!

I have quite a few students that have pursued careers in the Marine Sciences that were inspired by this trip. (John Hays has been bringing his AP Biology class to PTMSC for an education program for over 30 years.)

…we really enjoyed the Tide Pooling experience. The volunteers were really friendly and very knowledgeable.  I told the folks it was the best $10 I’ve spent in a long time.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We acknowledge that we work on the traditional lands and waters of many Coast Salish Peoples, particularly the S’Klallam People, the Strong People. We respect and are grateful for this land, these waters, and the people who have inhabited them since time immemorial and who continue to steward this place for future generations.
