Lend a hand to Ernestina

The May 12 work day has been confirmed! As part of the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park’s Volunteer Day,  DCR and SEMA are cooperating in a workday for Ernestina on Saturday, May 12.  NP staff will be ready at 8:30 am at the Visitor’s Center at 33 William St New Bedford.  You need to stop by there first to register before you come to the ship.  We will start work at 9 am and work until approximately 12:30 pm when, following the morning’s projects, there will be a complimentary “All-American Cookout” in the National Park Visitor Center Garden for those volunteering, sponsored by the Whaling History Alliance.

Please CONTACT us if you will be volunteering so we can prepare for refreshments and can plan the working groups.
