From the Mosquito Fleet:

1 pm, May 16th at Alki Kayak tours:

Swarming Against Global Warming in the Salish Sea – We’re looking for a few good paddlers for a showdown with Shell.

We’re throwing a family-friendly protest party on the water around Shell’s GIANT oil rig, the “Polar Pioneer”, and we’d love to see you there.

Join us, and ideally thousands of others who give a damn, for an adventurous day full of music, art, and entertainment. Bring a picnic and make a day of it.

Kayak rentals will be available for folks who don’t have boats. Mosquito Fleet trainers will help orient individuals with limited experience. We’ll have trained safety coordinators out on the water keeping kayaktavists safe.

There will also be tons of fun and colorful protest flair happening on the beach. Because Mosquito Fleet LOVES landlubbers!
