Still Traveling: Intro to Antarctica!

Still Traveling

Would you like to still travel? Now you can without leaving your home – just stay still!

Let us whisk you away for an “armchair adventure” on an interesting, educational, fun & live, guided group tour in a destination beyond your front door …even beyond the grocery store!

Forget the long, masked airplane ride, we take you across the time zones by Zoom where a local professional guide from a distant destination will take us to explore sites or topics. Live Q&A, photos, graphics & video clips (when available) will transport us to the destination!

Your ticket purchase helps support our special guests – professional guides – who were mostly or completely out of work during the pandemic.

Intro to Antarctica!

Monday, October 9

11am-12:00pm (PT), 12-1:00pm (MT), 1-2:00pm (CT), 2-3:00pm (ET)

on Zoom

Join our interesting and entertaining guide of the natural world – Celia – for a journey to the continent of snow and ice that lies at the southern-most point of our plant.

With this enthusiastic environmental educator, discover Antartica’s thrilling history of exploration, its abundant wildlife that thrives in the most extreme environments, and its promise of scientific discovery.

This introduction to Antarctica is truly just the tip of the iceberg.

The Fine Print:

Fortunately, we’ve had very few issues, but just to be clear…

Your Zoom “Event Link”: The Zoom event link will be emailed to all registered guests upon reservation and again about 2-hours prior to each tour. To help it land in your “inbox,” please add the following emails to your contacts:

• JCC Zoom – Zoom3@marinjcc.org
• JCC Alliance — alliance@marinjcc.org
• James Sokol — jsokol@marinjcc.org

Registrants are requested to make sure the email w/link has arrived by the evening of Sat, Oct 7th. If the email does not arrive, please see “Troubleshooting” below.

Have a Comcast email? Please refer to this guide: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/spam-filters-and-email-blocking-new-experience.

Troubleshooting: We will do our best to remedy any issues. Registrants who have NOT received the email w/link are asked to check their email “junk” and “spam” folders. If found, please move the email to your inbox. If the email/link is still not there, please contact James (see below) immediately.

Late Troubleshooting: We will try our best – but cannot guarantee – help with Zoom links to guests contacting James less than 30-minutes prior to the event.

Live Only: In agreement with our guides, artists, instructors, special guests, etc., events are not recorded. Make-up sessions are unavailable. Credit/refund is not given for missed events.
