Make plans to join us for Maritime Day in Olympia on January 28, 2020.
We will be meeting with state legislators throughout the day to highlight the importance of the maritime industry in Washington and advocate for maritime sector legislative priorities.
Maritime Day officially kicks off with breakfast at the Governor Hotel’s Legislative Room at 7:30. Meetings with lawmakers will occur from 8:30 am - noon. After the 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm lunch break, there will be more legislative visits from 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm. Closing out the festivities, join us for fun and fellowship at an evening reception to which the Legislators will be invited. You will not want to miss this signature event and opportunity to engage with lawmakers on issues that matter to you.
Washington Maritime Federation's Maritime Day once again partners with the legislative day for the Washington Public Ports Association. We will be coordinating our activities to complement their day.
This year we are looking into chartering a bus from Seattle to Olympia in order to get to maximum WMF member turnout. Please respond to Carolyn Wickliff (Wickliff.c@portseattle.org), if access to a group transportation option makes your attendance more likely.
Note that the $75 Maritime Day ticket can be deducted from your membership dues when you renew or join WMF.
