Giving Back to Front Line Workers

Deadline extended til July 30! Join or Renew and Give a Membership to the “Watch On Deck”. We would like to invite you to join us in giving thanks to those who are devoting such extraordinary effort to our local communities.

Saluting the Watch on Deck : The “watch on deck”, as pictured in the video below, is the front line on a schooner in a storm at sea with gusts howling in the rigging and sails reefed to their minimum. They are the crew with wind and spray lashing their oilskins and braving the seas threatening to carry them overboard. endure this battle with the elements to safeguard their shipmates and a hold full of fish, both precious cargo. Adventure’s crew would like to recognize and pay tribute to front line health care workers, the “watch on deck” around the country who work around the clock to care for the sick and protect the rest of us.

Join or Renew and Give a Membership to the “Watch On Deck”

We would like to invite you to join us in giving thanks to those who are devoting such extraordinary effort to our local communities. Purchase a new membership or membership renewal that before July 30 and we will give a free 2021 membership to an employee of the Beth Israel Lahey Health Hospitals in Beverly and Gloucester.

Become a sustainer! By choosing this membership option for as little as $10 a month, you can provide a reliable source of funding for Adventure and a meaningful gift for a valued hospital employee. Please click on the button below.

Due to the restrictions on activity that have resulted from the current public health crisis we have been unable to pursue our vibrant educational programs, vessel operations, and our annual Gala and Auction, all of which are critical sources of revenue. Please consider making a donation today to help steer Adventure into the future!
