The Monterey Bay Aquarium Under-5 Adventure is open to Northern and Central California burn survivors under the age of 5 years and their families. Explore creatures of the sea and spend some time outdoors playing in the park connecting with other families and new friends!

This event is a day trip. Registrants will be provided a time schedule.  The event is staffed by AARBF personnel and fully-screened volunteers.  Lunch is provided and tickets to the Aquarium. A small fee, typically $5, may be required.

If your child loves the ocean and ocean life – they will love this trip!

The Sleepover Adventure is open to Northern and Central California burn survivors ages 5-16. Generous donations from the Monterey Bay Aquarium, City of Monterey, City of Carmel and Seaside Fire Departments make this trip possible for 25 lucky kids. Explore creatures of the sea and fall asleep under the soft glow of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Fish Tanks!

This event begins on Saturday morning and runs through Sunday evening. The weekend is staffed by AARBF personnel and fully screened volunteers. The children are placed into small groups with up to three counselors per group. All meals are provided. A small fee, typically $5, may be required.
