Stewardship Tuesday: Learning through Paddling

Join the Marine Science Institute (MSI) and The Marine Mammal Center for a unique, hands-on adventure through our local wetland habitat! Paddle through the winding slough in a canoe as we discover the incredible wildlife that calls this ecosystem home. During this guided experience, you'll learn about the vital role sloughs play in supporting the health of the Bay and the marine mammals that rely on these habitats. We'll also discuss how human activity impacts these environments and how we are all interconnected. By the end of the event, we hope you’ll walk away with a deeper appreciation for wetland ecosystems and will have some goals for the next steps you can take on your conservation journey.

No canoeing experience is necessary! The MSI team will provide an introduction to basic paddling techniques, boat safety, and general water safety to ensure a fun and comfortable experience for all participants.
