Join us at the 1877 Tall Ship ELISSA for tea and cookies with a touch of history and excitement. Watch the ELISSA crew maneuver the ship at the dock, setting sails and climbing in the rigging. Ongoing demonstrations will be introduced by the Captain’s wife, who will also give commentary and answer questions. Come see what life was like for a sailor on the high seas!
