Ocean Journey Exhibit
An ocean of change to McWane’s aquarium!
The highlight of many visits to McWane Science Center is a stop by the Deep Discovery area in the aquarium. It is home to favorites like the green Moray eel, the moon jellyfish, clownfish and more. This area is dedicated to salt water environments from around the world featuring some of the most amazing creatures in the ocean.
Now, the experience will only get better. After nearly 13 years since it was created, the popular Deep Discovery area has received a much-needed makeover. The area has been renovated to include updated tanks, new lighting, and an overall new look. This area has been renamed “Ocean Journey." Guests will enjoy learning more about the fish in the tanks. The new graphics will identify and describe all of the animals. They will also describe the different ecosystems represented by the different salt water tanks.
The aquarium will welcome spectacular new additions including dwarf cuttlefish. They will be a particularly exciting addition to the aquarium because they are very intelligent, unusual, and exciting to see in person as they dart quickly around their tanks. These amazing creatures, also known as Sepia bandensis, are cephalopods, related to octopus, squid and nautilus. Sepia bandensis have 8 arms, two feeding tentacles, three hearts, a ring shaped brain, a cuttle bone that helps control buoyancy, a fin that girds their mantle for fine maneuvering, a funnel that gives them 'jet' propulsion, superb 360 degree vision, copper based blood and the ability to squirt ink. They lay clusters of ink-covered eggs that resemble clusters of grapes. When the hatchlings are born they are tiny, less than a ¼ inch long, but can grow to an inch long within 2 months, and to about 4 inches within 6 months. Guests will surely enjoy meeting these amazing new members of the aquarium.
Funding for the new Deep Discovery area was provided by Birmingham Coca-Cola Bottling Company.
Looking for the perfect glass to go with such perfect weather? Look no further:
Casal Garcia Vinho Verde This blend of Portuguese grape varietals is clean and refreshing, with just a hint of sweetness and a slight fizz.
Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc Classic New Zealand style, with bright, fresh pink grapefruit on the nose mellowed by a hint of gooseberry on the palate and a crisp finish. Oberbergen Pinot Noir This pinot is light, with ripe red strawberry flavors and very soft tannins. Mumm Napa Brut Rose This sparkling rose is mostly pinot noir grapes, and the ripe red fruit of the pinot variety are definitely present along with the nutty, yeasty flavors of a great sparkling wine made in the Champagne method.
We do Weddings!

CAP is noticing more car break-ins than usual downtown. Almost all have one thing in common—items left in sight. The items range from GP systems to a pack of cigarettes.

At Adeptio, we've put together a facility where many aspects of wellness can be achieved all in one place. Our initial membership offerings allowed one price for full access to all areas. For some, this is a great value; however, others may be seeking only to utilize one or two specific areas.
We are now offering three levels of membership: Red (basic access to strength/cardio equipment and locker rooms), White (includes unlimited group classes), and Blue (all-inclusive + CrossFit).
We have Zumba class offerings - Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30PM. Martina Winston (HR Partner at Regions Bank) leads this high-energy class and is building quite a following! Come and check out one class at a drop-in rate of only $7!
Please post this at your office, pass along to co-workers and friends, and come by for a tour. We're open Monday - Friday, 5AM - 7PM and Saturday from 8AM - 2PM.
Also, visit our website for more information and group class schedules www.adeptiowellness.com
