Mote Marine in Downtown Punta Gorda -- Wouldn't it be Loverly?

If you visited the Seafood Festival last weekend, you might have stopped by the traveling Mote Marine Exhibit all the more tantalizing the community with the idea of having a Mote Museum as one of our centerpieces in downtown Punta Gorda.  Members of Team Punta Gorda have been working on such a possibility and are looking for support from the community.

Mote Marine Laboratory is a leader in marine research located in Sarasota.  As part of their facility in Sarasota Mote has an Aquarirum where you can explore the secrets of the sea through touch pools, viewable-working labs and high-tech interactive exhibits that showcase the world-renowned research of Mote Marine Laboratory. See sharks, dolphins, manatees and sea turtles, along with more than 100 other species of marine life.

 

If you support having a Mote Aquarium in our downtown, you can help Team Punta Gorda further this project by indicating so on their web page: http://www.teampuntagorda.org/mote.html
