Hello,


Adur World Oceans Day this year will take place in the marquee on Coronation
Green next to Shoreham High Street on 6th June 2009 on the opening Saturday
of the Adur Festival. Len Nevell will be there with the usual exhibition of
lobsters and crabs. The innovative aquarium displays of seashore life,
strandline exhibits and photographs will again be in on show. Experts will
be on hand to answer your queries about life in the oceans and on the
seashore.

I think World Oceans Day this is best described by the Nobel prize winning
author John Steinbeck when writing about Ed 'Doc' Ricketts of Cannery Row
fame in which he wrote 'commercial fishermen harvest the sea to feed men's
bodies and a marine biologist harvests the sea to feed men's minds'
Quote by Andy Horton (British Marine Life Study Society)

The Friends of Shoreham Beach will again be playing an important part with
their own displays and information about the Nature Reserve and plants of
the shingle beach.

Cheers

Andy Horton
