Seth Bender Camp Scholarship Fund

Seth Bender was a young man with a zest for the natural world and especially the marine environment.  After his death in a snowboarding accident, his family established a fund which will allow other young people to attend our summer camps. By supporting this fund you can help young people experience the marine environment under the mentorship of staff and volunteers at the Port Townsend Marine Science Center.

Your Marine Science Center membership and donations support life-changing educational programs, nurture marine animals, and drive vital scientific research.
