Members of the Week: Rebecca, Lillian and Abigail

There are a lot of perks that come with membership at the New England Aquarium, like express admission all year and discounts at the Cafe and Gift Shop. Now you can add our new Member of the Week recognition to that list. How can members participate? Just show up and visit your Aquarium! We'll be randomly selecting members for this special honor throughout the fall.

Congratulations to our Members of the Week, Rebecca, Lillian and Abigail, who were visiting with Rebecca’s sister, Katherine! We met Rebecca and her family soon after they re-entered the exhibit area to take another look at the Jelly Exhibit in the Aquarium’s West Wing. Rebecca said the family just joined in the summer because her two daughters “love the Aquarium.”  Abigail and Lillian could barely take their eyes off of the moon jellies tank and because of their membership they’ll be able to enjoy them all year.

For being our Members of the Week, Rebecca and her daughters received a free 4”x6” photo from our friends at SharpShooter, a copy of the beautifully illustrated Aquarium souvenir guidebook, a turtle shell glass paperweight handcrafted by artist Robin Lehman, and plush stingrays for both Abigail and Lillian!

So what do you have to do to be our Member of the Week? Just visit! You could win on any day of the week, any time of day. We'll be announcing winners right here on the News Blog every Friday. So come on down and see seals and sea lions at play, visit Myrtle in her temporary home in the penguin exhibit, spot the camouflaged seadragons, watch the little blue penguins in their temporary exhibit  and experience the Aquarium's transformation first hand. Who knows, you could be our next Member of the Week!
