"AN UNFORGETTABLE SHORE LEAVE"
The Second Officer of the crude oil tanker UMLMA sent a note and some pictures from a quck visit to Philadelphia while the vessel was berthed at Paulsboro last week.
"To visit Philadelphia was always my wish," he told us, and went on to describe how our host transporter Josh Simonetti made it happen. To read all of the seafarer's note and see more pictures, visit our website at www.sciphiladelphia.org/to-visit-philadelphia-was-always-my-wish/

VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION
SCI Board president Captain David Cuff, vice president Michael Cureton, and executive director Helene Pierson hosted an appreciation dinner for a group of volunteers last week on the Moshulu.
SCI operates with a very small staff and relies on volunteers for help as Chaplains, host transporters, and office workers, among other responsibilities.
"We deeply appreciate their commitment," says Helene, "and we're very focused on making sure they are in turn enriched and fulfilled by the experience."

FASTER THAN FACEBOOK
Seafarers sometimes contact us by Facebook to request a WIFI hot spot. We respond quickly, but in this case Dan Dolan, our new host transporter, got there just when the message was sent. The seafarer sent this picture of Dan already doing the paperwork that goes along with delivering the free commnication devices.
