Join PortSide New York and help restore the Mary A. Whalen!
Summer 2007, we began volunteer work days on the Whalen. Come join! Get out on the water and join a cheerful horde doing boat work! Folks of all ages and skill and fitness levels can help. We have something for everyone.
Volunteer Shipwork occurs Sundays, 1-6pm. We can also use people at all sorts of hours helping on or near the ship, or running errands in the neighborhood; so get in touch if you want to help but don’t have weekend hours available.We request that you chip in at least two hours during a weekend volunteer day and bring your own work gloves if you have them; you are likelier to get a better fit that way. Enter American Stevedoring/Brooklyn Marine Terminal gate at Hamilton Avenue and Van Brunt Street.
Due to port security regulations, we need your name in advance and you need to show a photo ID at the containerport gate. Please please RSVP to mail@portsidenewyork.org.
