$6.7 Million Secured for National Museum

Assemblymember Mike A. Gipson, CA-64th District, stopped by yesterday morning to officially deliver a check for $6.7 million to the National Museum Of The Surface Navy at Battleship IOWA to build the Freedom of the Seas Park Pavilion. 

Click the photo below to view the check presentation ceremony in its entirety. It was a great event hosted by Battleship IOWA board of trustees chairman Bruce DD Mac Rae and featuring speeches from Senator Steven Bradford, San Pedro Chamber of Commerce CEO Elise Swanson, Port of Los Angeles Senior Communications Director Arley Baker, and LAUSD board member Tanya Franklin-Ortiz.

Thanks to everyone who was there and to all who support projects like this one that will benefit our community for years to come!

You’ve heard of tailgating, but FANTAIL-gating?

The LA Dodgers are in the playoffs and we’re turning our fantail into a giant tailgate party!
