Monterey Bay Aquarium is Wild About Otters

One of the best experiences I have had in my quest to Experience Mobility was a visit toCalifornia and making a stop at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was an inspirational day looking at what the folks at the aquarium have done to present to the visitors the wonders of the ocean. Of course, a big part of the California coast is the Otter population and the aquarium now has a new exhibit called Wild About Otters.

I was pleased to see that Otter Products, LLC.is a supporter of theMonterey Bay Aquarium’s latest exhibit. Wild About Otters is a dynamic and interactive display featuring 10 freshwater otters and species that share their habitats. The exhibit illustrates the importance of clean water and conservation of lakes, rivers and oceans.

“We are thrilled to take part in such a great cause,” said Curt Richardson, CEO of Otter Products, LLC. “The Monterey Bay Aquarium provides a great resource for educating people about this incredible species.”

“As the symbol for our company, the otter serves as an inspiration with its fun, active personality. We look forward to playing an active role in the exhibit to help protect otters around the world,” explains Richardson.

So why do I mention this? Well if you are going to California and will be in the Monterey area, then you might want to take a day and visit the aquarium. OtterBox will be giving away 200 complimentary tickets to Wild About Otters as well as donating sale proceeds to the aquarium during the year. The company plans to give away cases to visitors on “World Ocean Day,” June 9, as well as attend and donate cases during “Otter Days,” September 22 and 23.

The aquarium is located on historic Cannery Row in Monterey. It is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and in summer and major holiday periods from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. (closed Christmas Day). Summer hours include extended weekend hours, from 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, between May 26th and September 3rd.

More information about Wild About Otters and the aquarium in general is available online at www.montereybayaquarium.org; or by calling 831-648-4888. The mission of the Monterey Bay Aquarium is to inspire conservation of the oceans.

And, the other things to see at the aquarium are very cool too.
I look forward to seeing the otters.
I did see a raft of otters once on a side trip, while cruising the coast of Alaska - this was really cool to see them floating there as a group.
