Event: Paddling for a Cleaner Ocean
Date: Tuesday, 01-May-2018
Time: 7pm (doors 6.30pm)
Price: Free, but register to guarantee your seat
Location: The Vancouver Aquarium
Description: Join us to hear about the journey of Mathilde Gordon and Lucy Graham , two paddlers kayaking from Juneau, Alaska to Vancouver Island, Canada. Their plan: to experience new places, take on the elements, connect with nature, challenge ourselves and have fun. They are using the three-month-long paddle to raise awareness of marine debris issues, fundraise for those fighting for ocean protection and conservation, and inspire others. Both of them have been living single-use plastic free since the beginning of 2016, and they’ll talk about taking the Be Plastic Wise pledge to the next level by paddling the Inside Passage without use of any single-use plastics.
There will be ASL interpreters and the venue is fully wheelchair accessible!
