Sea Lion 20th Anniversary Celebration
Friday, May 21, 2010
11:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Welcome Home Sea Lions! After their mysterious disappearance this winter, the famous California Sea Lions have come back to PIER 39! There will be a celebration to honor their return and to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the arrival of the sea lions to the West Marina. The sea lions first began arriving in January of 1990, shortly after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Since that time, they have become PIER 39’s natural attraction, fascinating visitors with their charming antics. Join the celebration and help us welcome the sea lions back! Throughout the celebration, naturalists from The Marine Mammal Center and Aquarium of the Bay will be available to tell you all about California Sea Lions.
