INVITES YOU TO JOIN US ON TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 6, FOR A PROGRAM ON THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT OF HUDSON RIVER PARK.

FISHES, OYSTERS AND CREATURES OF THE MUCK

TUESDAY, JULY 6, 6PM, PIER 40

Join ichthyologist and author JOHN WALDMAN of the Hudson River Foundation, and the man who guards the Hudson, biologist MIKE LUDWIG of the National Marine Fisheries Service, as they reveal some of the wonders of the waters that surround New York, including the thriving marine life that dwells just below the surface in Hudson River Park.

 These will be lively PowerPoint presentations that are a must for science lovers, fishermen, Hudson River aficionados and all educated Americans. NOREEN DOYLE, Executive Vice President of the Hudson River Park Trust, will moderate.

The program starts at 6PM in the lobby of Pier 40 (directions below) and includes a delicious dinner. The program will be followed by a tour of the new Greenwich Village section of the Park for those interested. The cost of $5 per person (free for Friends’ members) includes dinner.
