Our Saturday celebrations in honor of Maritime Day were a big hit! We had free tours of the ship sponsored by the Evansville Propeller Club to honor Maritime Day May 22nd. We had 660 people tour the ship to help promote awareness of the Maritime Industry.
Opening Ceremonies
A beautiful piper played while the Marine Honor Guard concluded the ceremonies.
May 22nd is designated Maritime Day in honor of the first steam-powered transoceanic voyage in 1819. For more information on Maritime Day, click here.
