SUNSET SUPPER HISTORY CRUISES ON THE PATUXENT

Climb aboard the historic Wm. B. Tennison for a leisurely cruise through history with celebrated local historian and author, Dr. Ralph Eshelman. Only two of these special history cruises are scheduled: Saturdays, June 6 and September 12 from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. The boat leaves from the museum dock. Tickets are $60 per person in advance and can be purchased by emailing mccormmj@co.cal.md.us or by calling 410-326-2042, ext. 41. Space is limited, so don’t delay in securing your passage for this unique experience.

Learn fascinating facts about Solomons, the WWII Amphibious Training Base, and Solomons’ rich tradition of boat building. 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, and Ghost Fleets docked. Watch the sunset over the horizon and enjoy a tasty supper provided by Lotus Kitchen. Guests are welcome to bring a libation of choice.
