I've been a volunteer and member at the Aquarium of the Pacific for 14 years, and each time I walk in, it feels like a brand new experience. I look for what's been changed or added, or something I may have missed before. With so many exhibits, there’s always something new.
When we help the school children who are assigned to find different things throughout the Aquarium during their field trips, their enthusiasm and excitement is just incredible to watch! I've worked with the Deaf and Deaf/Blind children by describing and helping them touch something they have never touched before like a sea star or baby shark. Seeing them laugh and scream with excitement is more rewarding than anything I can think of.
The Aquarium is a place that offers so much more than just looking at a fish and exhibits, it provides life changing experiences. If you haven’t been yet, come see it for yourself – you won’t regret it!
