The Training Ship GOLDEN BEAR will return to Honolulu this year. The ETA at the Pilot Station time is 0700 on Saturday 20th of June. The ship will stay until Monday the 22nd when she departs the dock at 1000.
So weather permitting, it could be a beautiful day to go out and greet the ship as she nears Diamond Head lighthouse and follow her along as she steams up to the Honolulu Harbor Sea Buoy. But, don’t get in the way … please! I “emphasize” the concept of FOLLOW the ship (as in, stay behind). The ship will be docked at Aloha Tower Pier 9. This is the pier that is on the makai side of the Aloha Tower complex, looking out towards the sea. The pier is open to the public, so “anyone” can go down and watch the ship come alongside as she ties up. If you have friends or family or a son/daughter onboard, this is always a great event to partake in. Come down to the harbor on a Saturday morning! Ample paid parking at the Aloha Tower Complex (or any office building downtown).
The DAVE LYMAN MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP FUNDRAISING EVENT will be :
SATURDAY, 20th, 4:30 PM TO 6:30 PM ONBOARD THE GOLDEN BEAR
Space is limited so we hope you reserve your seats early. Contact Capt. Ed Enos if you want to hold a few seats for you and your friends or your office staff. ( capt.edenos@gmail.com )
