What: Join our Sealabration at Malts for Moana! Help us celebrate Moana's 3rd birthday at MobCraft Brewery. Moana is a rescued California sea lion that was found stranded in a storm sewer at four months of age and could not survive out the wild. She has found her forever home with us at Ocean Connections and has been educating others about the challenges marine animals are facing. This July she will be turning 3 years old and what better way to honor her than a Summer Sealabration! We hope you will join us at MobCraft Brewery for delicious food, custom brews, and help us "kick the keg." Along with MobCraft's long list of amazing craft beers and pizza options, we're serving up a specialty Malts for Moana brew! 15% of all sales will support our conservation efforts and we will receive an additional donation if we finish the Malts for Moana keg. Come eat, drink, and be merry for an amazing conservation cause. Hope to see you there! When: Wednesday July 17th, 2019 Time: 6:00-9:00 PM
