Capt. Phillips Trust Announces Fall Gala Dinner

The Captain Richard Phillips Lane Kirkland Maritime Trust has opened registration for its 2019 Washington, D.C. Fall Gala and Scholarship Fundraising Event, which will be held on November 4 and the Westin Washington National Harbor. Funds contributed to the Trust directly support a maritime scholarship program that supports students of all ages and backgrounds pursuing a maritime career.

This year, the Trust will honor two individuals for their lifetime contributions to the U.S. maritime industry in the areas of education or community service:

Captain Steve Werse (SUMC)
1st Engineer Jay Corcoran (MASS)

U.S. Maritime Administrator Rear Adm. Mark H. Buzby (USN, ret'd) will be the event's special guest speaker. 

The Captain Richard Phillips and Lane Kirkland Maritime Trust welcomes you to this fun evening with overwhelming appreciation for your financial generosity and time. Help us recognize the best of what was, what is, and what might be, across the waterfront and aboard all types of vessels.
