The Tall Ships Are Coming Back To Duluth

Working the tall ships three years ago was an incredible experience for me. The ships were beautiful and the reenactment village was cool. The craziest thing I saw was that people were paying the staff members $60 for their event shirts.

The amount of people that come up for this event is incredible. Families come from all over to enjoy boarding one of the ships. One of the fun things for me was that some kids came up and asked me if I was a pirate. I can’t really argue, I kind of do look like a pirate. It was fun to get my pictures taken the families and helping them get to their ships for boarding. As with any event like this, there’s souvenirs to buy and money to be spent. Here’s the kicker, people were paying $60 for our staff T-shirts. I know that sounds crazy but it’s true. Now not everyone sold theirs, and a matter fact very few did. It’s fun to keep memorabilia from a event you are a part of.

Go out and create your own adventure this summer.
