Summer Adventure Program
2002 Season
"Ready for a
summer adventure?"
Are you looking for an
alternative to the same old hum drum summer vacation? Ever thought about
what it would be like to live on a real Navy ship? Want to make new
friends and have a real adventure? Well here’s your chance! The United
States Naval Shipbuilding Museum and the USS Salem are offering you a
chance to participate in their Summer Adventure. You will live on board
the USS Salem, participate in fun activities from swimming to seamanship
and learn about what it is really like in the Navy today and what it was
like for sailors 200 years ago! We will visit historic sites in Quincy
and Boston. Cruise to Boston Harbor and visit Historic Fort Warren on
Georges Island, we may even bump into a ghost or two while we’re
there! An overnight camping trip on one of the Boston Harbor Islands is
also available to the really adventurous.
Meals will be served in the ships mess
and include breakfast, lunch, dinner and a evening movie with a nightime
snack.
Summer Adventure is a opportunity not
to be missed! Slots fill up fast, so get you application in soon. Please
