Event

Veterans Day Cruise

This program will focus on the military history of Boston Harbor beginning with the American Revolution up until present day. We will make a stop at Fort Warren on Georges Island where visitors can experience the history of the Civil War.

Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on the island!
