HISTORIC SUNSET SUPPER CRUISES

Climb aboard the Wm. B. Tennison for a 90-minute Sunset Supper Cruise through history, followed by a light supper, on Saturday, June 18 from 5:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $50 per person. Reserve your spot today by calling 410-326-2042, ext. 41 or emailing mccormmj@co.cal.md.us.

Coby Treadway, historian and museum educator, will share fascinating facts about Solomons, the WWII Amphibious Training Base, and Solomon’s rich tradition of boat building. While munching appetizers, see old steamboat wharfs and hear about the important role they played in town life. View historic homes, landmarks, and other points of interest. Discover where heroic battles were fought, submarines sunk, lighthouses lit, Ghost fleets docked, and watch the sunset over the horizon.

After the cruise, participants will return to the museum for a short presentation and a light supper from Lotus Kitchen. Participants are invited to bring their own libations. Sunset Supper History Cruises will also be offered on Saturdays, August 6 and September 17.
