Docent Class

We are planning to have a docent training class on June 21 at 1000 at the Armory.  Although many members have either attended the class or are currently Docents, all are welcome to attend.  Many who have attended the class ask for an update on the information, so please feel welcome to attend.

The class runs approximately 1.5 hours.  Bring something to drink and we will bring the donuts! 

Please RSVP here so we have enough books for each person. 

We need your RSVPs back by June 25, so we can get books made for each of you.  Looking forward to seeing you there!

USS Cod - Submarine Rescue Re-Enactment

USS Cod - Submarine Rescue Re-Enactment

The USS Cod will celebrate the 80th anniversary of history's only international submarine-to-submarine rescue on Saturday, July 12 at 2 pm.

On that day in 1945 USS Cod rescued the 55-man crew of the Dutch submarine O19 after it grounded on Ladd Reef, deep in enemy waters. After two days of failed attempts to pull the Allied sub free the crew was taken aboard Cod and the O19 destroyed. Cod's rescue earned her an honorary place in the Netherlands submarine force. 

On July 12 Cod will stage a reenactment of the boat crew transfer and salute the friendship between the two nations with a deck gun demonstration and refreshments. 

See their website for more details: USS COD HOMEPAGE
