— an announcement from The Maritime Aquarium
The Norwalk Health Department will offer first-dose Pfizer vaccinations to children in The Maritime Aquarium from 4 to 7 p.m. Each child will go home with protection against the virus and a coupon for a return visit to the Aquarium: a free child’s admission with one paying adult (a $19.95 value).

The Aquarium’s new seal exhibit, which is where kids will sit for their brief post-shot monitoring.
For the free vaccination shot, children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, who are asked — but not required — to bring their insurance cards.
(Wednesday’s clinic does not include admission to the Aquarium. But children will be monitored, post-shot, for at least 15 minutes at a window into the Aquarium’s big new harbor seal exhibit, “Pinniped Cove.”)
Enter at the Group Entrance door, near the Aquarium’s main entrance. Validations will be available for those who park in the Maritime Garage.
The Norwalk Health Department will hold a second-dose clinic at the Aquarium on Thurs., Dec. 9.
