On a comfortable overcast Saturday morning at Marina Beach, the City of Edmonds Discovery Program presented a story time with Mermaid Madrigal to learn about merfolk and ocean conservation.

After story time, participants could have their picture taken with the mermaid and also enjoyed a special hands-on program, “All About Seaweed,” with the Edmonds Beach Rangers. A small obstacle course was available for the youngsters and when they completed it, they received a hand stamp from the Beach Rangers.
