2/18/2001 Climbing the walls at Sport Rock in Gaithersburg, MD
Montpelier Fest
in Laurel, MD.
Once a year, Scouts from Sea Scout Ship 1009 dress up in furry,
funny outifts and entertain the children who attend the Montpelier
Fest held in Laurel, MD on the first Saturday in May.
Bridge of Honor
Twice a year, the ship holds a "Bridge of Honor" ceremony
to honor shipmates who have gained rank, participated in an activity
or who have just joined the ship. Sea Scouts and leaders perform
all ceremonies in their "land ship."
Naval Academy Concessions
In the Fall, as a fundraising activity, the Ship runs concession
stands at the United States Naval Academy home games. It's an
all day affair, setting up the stands, selling food and counting
up the money. We are close to the games and feel the excitement
of the crowd.
Nut Sale Fundraiser
In October, the annual nut sales begin. We buy nuts in bulk in
response to the orders Sea Scouters bring in. The nuts are hand
packed into one pound bags during a nut bagging activity in November.
The nut sales are timely since the nuts arrive right around holiday
baking time.
