Meeting Time Change

Due to a time conflict we will have to move up today’s public chapter meeting time to 6pm at the MiiR Flagship in Fremont. We apologize for this inconvenience and will make it up to attendees with a thanks and gift for those who attend. The same agenda as before is on the docket with a short presentation from Sealife Response, Rehab, and Research and information about the Trump administration’s move to open up offshore drilling on our coasts. Again, our apologizes and we hope to catch you this evening!

If there was ever a time for action, it’s now.
