Trivia question: Is coral an animal or a plant?
(Answer at the bottom of the post)

Join the Dive Club in the Gamache-Kroger theater this Saturday (Nov 18th) at 3:00 pm for a screening of the award winning documentary Chasing Coral.

Released this year, this is a film documenting the rapid disappearance of the worlds coral reef systems due to a phenomenon known as coral bleaching.

We hope to see you there!
