We'll be singing chanteys of black sailors, longshoremen, fishermen and oarsmen, and talking about the history behind the songs. The choruses are easy to pick up, and all will be encouraged to sing along. Ships admission fees apply: $5 adults. Ages 15 and under, free. Free with national park passes. Information: www.nps.gov/safr.htm or 415-447-5000. no advanced reservations - just come to the ticket booth halfway along the pier. Tickets are good for other vessels docked at the pier, and good for 7 days from date of purchase. Hope to see some 'catters there! -Chanteyranger |
