A great weekend

The tall ships have come and gone, and we were lucky enough to be part of the event. Thanks to everyone who checked out the touch tank on the way to the ships, or who made a stop at our mini tank at the event site. It was wonderful to meet you all! And for those of you who didn't get the chance to stop by, there are still three weeks left of August - we're open 10 to 2 every day.
On Saturday, two friendly scuba divers brought us lots of sea stars. Come watch them move around the tank using their tube feet - if you're lucky, you may get to see them extract their stomachs as they eat!
