PODS Ocean Week Canada Celebration


June 1st 2024 - June 9th 2024
Madeira Park, British Columbia

Our Ocean Week Celebration will raise awareness about the importance of the ocean to our planet’s health and to human well-being, connect citizens with the ocean, and encourage sustainable practices and responsible stewardship of marine biodiversity. Activities will include water sampling training sessions and shoreline clean-up events at three different locations – one ocean, one lake, and one stream. We will also offer presentations and outreach tables highlighting the species, habitats, and ecosystems of the Salish Sea, and the local scientists working on ocean research, conservation, and the Pender Harbour Ocean Discovery Station (PODS) project. A culminating ocean celebration event will feature art, music, and sustainable seafood.
