Ship's Log:
This is Loren Hagerty (SALTS Executive Director) chiming in with an update on Pacific Grace since I see we have no logs posted yet this week. On Saturday the ship hosted a reception for Canada Wood Group, an organization that promotes BC timber in Asia. About 40 guests came to see what beautiful things can be made out of Douglas Fir and Yellow Cedar from BC! The reception went very well by all accounts, and weīve offered to host a similar event in Osaka, Japan.
The trainees and crew-members have been taking turns travelling to Beijing. Bosun Jordan Campbell wrote me this morning: "Our time in Beijing was a whirlwind and a mixed bag for me as I was deathly ill with the flu but saw some of the worldīs wonders at the same time." The travel schedule has been busy and crew-members are weary but are having a great time in Asia. Thatīs it for my brief update. If you havenīt seen our latest Saltings newsletter, I invite you to click on "A Fresh Vision for SALTS" from our home page to learn about some incredible things we are planning at the Society--including drawings of our next tallship. You can also join us at 7:30 pm Thursday, Feb 28 at the University Club at UVIC for the SALTS AGM, which will include a slideshow of offshore photos.
Good night, Loren
