Save the Santa Maria / Great Lakes Pirate Gathering

The Santa Maria ship needs your help. The mayor of Columbus wants to see the community support for the ship. He has asked us to raise the money to do a complete restoration. By doing so and with his blessing he will help find the millions needed to build us a new docking system and visitor center. He doesn't want to commit those dollars without guarantee that the ship will be around for another 50 years.   The Crewe of the Redemption and Corsairs of the Crimson Coast will be Hosting a new event called: Great Lakes Pirate Gathering: May 16th,17th and 18th 2014. This  will be held when the Santa Maria Pirate fest was going to take place.
Since there is none this coming year I was fitting it into that time slot.
We the Crewe of the Redemption and the Corsaires of the Crimson Coast have agreed that this event shall be for the benefit of the worthy cause of the Santa Maria, and all proceeds will be donated to this cause.Save the Santa Maria
