National Maritime Day Ceremony

National Maritime Day, May 22nd, is our day!

Our council ceremony with attendees of the former the Sacramento Valley Chapter of the American Merchant Marine Veterans will again be in Sacramento.  We will read the 2019 presidential proclamation. For those interested, lunch will follow in Old Sacramento.

The location is adjacent to the Maritime Monument located on the promenade on the east bank of the Sacramento River between Tower Bridge and Embassy Suites.
