We're finally less than a month from Gazela's historic voyage to the Chesapeake for America250 festivities! It's her 125th year afloat, and it's already been a big year.
Between the delivery and shaping of a new bowsprit and mainmast in Chester, stepping of the spars (with historic coins involved), a lovely Annual Dinner aboard Moshulu (including a special congratulations to Linda Bills as the recipient of the Gay Burgiel Gazela Volunteer of the Year Award), and the funds raised by our thriving community, Gazela is almost geared up for her incredibly eventful summer and fall.
Port dates:
Alexandria VA: June 12 - June 14
Portsmouth VA: June 19 - June 22
Baltimore MD: July 2 - July 5
We project at least 35,000 visitors at port stops in Alexandria, Portsmouth, and Baltimore. This will be an exciting time for Gazela to introduce herself to and enrich the lives of countless new people.
This is the kind of year that can define an organization's future, and we're determined to make the most of it. Don't miss out - be part of these historic once-in-a-lifetime festivities!
