Coral research daytrip?

So, don't know if many have seen this yet...
Scientists at an aquarium just figured out how to save Florida's 'Great Barrier Reef'

I was in Point (Pleasant) today and noticed that the aquarium is promoting a special tour for coral enthusiasts which give some background on whats going on with the corals, what research is occurring, what they (Jenkinson's) are doing, and what expectations are. It includes a 30 minute talk and a tour of their coral propagation setups.

Dropped my name at the desk.

If I can set something up with them I'd like to know who would have interest in a group tour.

We can extend the tour to pass through Icarus brewery (nearby) and end with burgers, dogs, and beer on my back deck as an unofficial gathering.

Lemme know if there's any interest in any of this.
 
Awesome. In theory I'd love to, but in reality I'm never sure if I can all off a few hours away, especially once the kids' activities take over my calendar. I'll follow along and if the timing works I'd be into it.

Les get some general numbers going.
They reached out to me today and need numbers and general time frame.
I'm thinking something a few weeks out... like Sat, Sept 21 or Sept 28? Would be early afternoonish.
