CITY OF WATER DAY

Tomorrow, July 16th, is going to be a very big one for Save Our Seaport, and should be lots of fun as well.

It’s City Of Water Day! The Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance says, “From the upper Hudson to Raritan Bay, we are a City of Water — yet too many of us are cut off from this tremendous resource. Help revitalize the waterfront with a festival for the entire family.”

What part will we be playing in this event?

We will have tables at both land locations – Governors Island and Liberty State Park – where we will provide information, speak to folks, and add signatures to our petitions. We’ll need lots of help at both locations, please give us a hand.

There’s more: The historic ships participating in the flotilla will be showing their support for our mission to save the South Street Seaport Museum by flying our banners. It should be spectacular!

If you can volunteer for the day, or even part of the day, please let us know now so we can plan for you. You can email us at saveourseaport@gmail.com or call us at (347)6-PIER16.

Yet one more added bonus: rather than waiting in line for the morning ferry to Governors Island, we can offer the option of riding out to the island on a beautiful historic sailing ship, thanks to one of our supporters. Can’t beat that, can you?

Hope to see you tomorrow!
