Lagoon at Noon

Pack up your lunch and join MRC on the first Tuesday of every month for our Lagoon at Noon (formerly Lunch & Learn) Seminars at 12:00 pm.

Please note the day change: this month’s presentation will be on the first Monday of the month, rather than the first Tuesday. Our schedule will return to normal in February.

This event is now hybrid with live streaming via Zoom and limited, in-person seating with registration required at the Ted Moorhead Lagoon House.
