SAVE OUR SEAPORT update

The next Save Our Seaport meeting will take place on Wednesday, November 2nd at 6:30pm. What is so special about this meeting is that we have been invited to hold it at the Seaport Museum, and MCNY Director Susan Henshaw Jones has agreed to appear and discuss the future of the Seaport with all of us. You will also meet Jerry Gallagher, who is now directing day-to-day operations at the Museum.

Specific location within the Museum will be announced soon. Please plan to attend!

Finally, here is a brief report on our last meeting, which took place back on October 13th.

SOS shared a lot of news, the first announcement being that the old Seaport Museum regime is over. SOS is already meeting with the new director of day-to-day Museum operations, Jerry Gallagher. The next SOS meeting, will be November 2, 6:30 at 12 Fulton Street. MCNY’s Susan Henshaw Jones and Jerry Gallagher will be meeting with us. Yep, that’s the Museum address. SOS will be meeting monthly after that, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be reasons to get together in between. If you haven’t filled out the volunteer survey, you can still do it now! Look for another event at the end of the month as SOS presents our petition to city government. (Hearing the rumblings from Pier 15, the City still needs to be hearing from us!)

Thanks to David Sheldon for the report.

We hope we’ll see you Thursday for the petition delivery, and November 2nd at our next meeting.
