We were delighted to receive news this week that the Alaska SeaLife Center & Puffin Experience has been selected as the shore excursion of the season in the Port of Seward in 2010. Awarded by one of our leading tourism partners, Princess Tours, this prestigious award is fitting recognition for the extraordinary efforts of our marketing, education, exhibits and husbandry staff. Our behind the scenes (BTS) encounters have proven exceptionally popular this summer and so it is gratifying for all staff involved to know that their hard work and expertise is appreciated by our visitors and partners.
For anyone who has not yet been on a BTS, we strongly encourage you to do so - not only are they a great opportunity to learn about our animals and birds, they also provide you with a personalized glimpse into the skill that underpins our animal husbandry program.
Thank you again to Princess Tours and the many visitors who supported our BTS programs in 2010 - we are continuing to work on those programs and expect to offer additional encounters in 2011 - stay tuned!
