Volunteer Opportunity! Come work on an historic coastal oil tanker!
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 [email protected].
