The breakfast is free and we will ask each guest to make a donation to our mission and programs.  Seats are limited to only 200, so place your reservation right away by email or by calling 206.382.7007.

Our program is headlined by the Hon. Bruce Babbitt, the author of Cities in the Wilderness: A New Vision of Land Use in America and a board member of the World Wildlife Fund.

The Magnuson Puget Sound Legacy Award honoree Bruce Higgins is a long-time advocate of recreational diving and guiding force behind creating the Edmonds Underwater Park with volunteer divers.
