What Can YOU do to reopen the Aquarium?

  • Stay involved and informed by visiting our web site and attending future meetings.

  • Use your connections to help find corporate sponsors, specific building related contractor donations and more volunteers and donations. 

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world;
indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
