Event Description

Fundraiser for the USS Hornet Museum. There will be live music and entertainment all day and fireworks viewing in the evening.

The USS Hornet is one of the most decorated ships in naval history (it participated in WWII and the Apollo 11 & 12 manned moon missions). Now serving as a world-class sea, air, and space museum, the USS Hornet is permanently docked at the former Naval Air Station in Alameda. Visitors can explore many decks of the historic aircraft carrier, including flight deck, captain’s bridge, sick bay, pilot ready rooms, and much, much more. Exhibits include the West Coast’s largest Apollo Moon Mission display and aircraft ranging from WWII vintage to the modern era. 

What we'll be doing

Volunteers will relieve Docent and Security personnel from non-critical duties (examples: stand at the top and bottom of ladderways and give directions) and help in running games for the kids.

What you should know

Volunteers are invited to bring a guest and stay and enjoy the festivities before or after their shift.

Where to meet

Volunteers board at the 2nd gangway. Follow signs to Security. The assembly point will be to the right by the entrance to the Hangar Deck from the boarding brow.
