[SEMCO] Tickets still available for marine adventure on June 10th

[Carol Carson]

Hello:  Tickets are still available for our upcoming all day marine 
adventure called "Seabird & Whale Tales" excursion scheduled for 
Sunday, June 10th from 8 am until 6 pm.  This trip is a fundraising 
event for NECWA, the New England Coastal Wildlife Alliance, a nonprofit 
environmental organization based in southeastern MA.  Join seabird 
experts Wayne Petersen and David Clapp, both from Mass. Audubon,  and 
whale expert, Dr. John Jahoda from Bridgewater State College as they 
provide commentary on the seabirds, whales, seals, basking sharks and 
ocean sunfish that can be sighted off Cape Cod.

Offshore activities include chumming for seabirds, towing for plankton 
(and onboard observation using microscopes) and participating in a free 
onboard raffle for nature-related items.  At our galley, you can 
purchase breakfast items that include bagels, muffins and donuts from 
Dunkin Donuts as well as coffee, tea and hot chocolate.  When you 
purchase a drink, you will be given a free travel mug from Dunkin 
Donuts to help reduce our waste while offshore.  For lunch, we will 
have homemade clam chowder and wraps compliments of chef Jim Haire and 
we will offer homemade chili compliments of Pat Mancini.  Bag lunches 
will also be available that include: a sandwich or wrap, a piece of 
fruit, a drink and a dessert.  Plus there will be lots of extras to 
satisfy those munchy moments.

Tickets are $85 for this all day marine adventure.  All proceeds from 
this excursion will benefit NEBShark, the New England Basking Shark 
Project, a community-based sighting network that enlists the services 
of the general public to help report sightings of basking sharks and 
ocean sunfish in the waters of the Gulf of Maine.  To learn more about 
this upcoming Seabird & Whale Tales excursion,  please visit our 
website at www.necwa.org.  Click on the "Seabird & Whale Tales" button 
on the left to view sighting lists and photos from previous trips or to

Thank you for your support and we hope to see you offshore on June 10th.

Best, Krill
