Looking back

As I write this, there is a freezing rain in Newport. A typical gloomy December day. The kind of day where you find yourself looking back fondly on the summer. Going through photos, watching videos, hardly believing it was only a few months ago.... Despite the heat, long days, and (occasional) challenges, it was pretty epic.

The below graphic outlines the successful TALL SHIPS CHALLENGE(r) Great Lakes Race Series 2019. It takes the support of an amazing community of people - crew, port organizers, security stakeholders, city officials, sponsors - to make these events so fun. We already can't wait for 2022.

A huge thank you to Erie Insurance, who generously sponsored the race series and put twenty students on board U.S. Brig Niagara for the adventure of a lifetime.
