Tidal Pool Exploration

Sunday, September 21  

2:00-3:30 p.m.

             Explore the tidal pools along the beach at Flag Ponds by dip netting for shrimp, crabs, small fish, and other organisms that frequent these sheltered waters.  Dip nets and boots will be provided.  Since we will be wading in the shallow pools, the following items are recommended: old clothes, water shoes, a water bottle, sunscreen, and a towel.  Meet at the education building.
