First Sunday Science at the Seaside Center
Project Limulus: The Horseshoe Crabs are Coming
Sunday, June 2nd, 2013, 1:30 PM-4:00 PM
The day will be full of exciting opportunities to participate and learn more about Project Limulus, an ongoing study of the Horseshoe Crab.  Don’t miss this opportunity to spot and tag Horseshoe Crabs on the Greenwich Point Beach, discuss the research project with people involved, and hear a presentation on the ecology of this often seen but not well known creature. There is a chance that participants will get wet during some segments of this program, please dress accordingly! We will be meeting at the Innis Arden Cottage, located on Greenwich Point. The program is free, but passes are required for Park entry. See the Town of Greenwich website for entry details. Presented by the Friends of Greenwich Point, Town of Greenwich, Sacred Heart University, and the Bruce Museum.  For more information, please call Peter Linderoth at 203-413-6742 or email plinderoth@brucemuseum.org.
