Dear
Sierra Club Halloween Fun and Fall Festival: Voyage to Antarctica
Join us for the Halloween Fun and Fall Festival! To RSVP call (585) 234-1056 For questions: Email Jessica Slaybaugh |
Join us for an evening of fun and games as we celebrate the beauties of the highest, windiest, coldest continent on our planet. There's a scavenger hunt for hidden Antarctic animals and birds, a prize for the best Antarctic animal/bird costume, and a close-up look at Antarctica by Peter Debes, Vice Chair of the RRG.
Peter, a professional naturalist, traveled to the Antarctica Peninsula in March this year and will show pictures and movies of the amazing landscapes, icebergs, birds, and animals that he saw there. It is a place teeming with wildlife, but there are signs of trouble in this paradise. Learn about the changes that are happening at the South Pole and what we can do to help protect it!
