SUMMARY:Sea Song Showdown Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:The Maritime Museum of BC is launching a brand new fundraiser for the next three weeks\, in support of programs for all ages: the Sea Song Showdown! Help the Museum raise $10\,000 by June 24 while immersing yourself in maritime music!  \n\n\n\nThere are two components to this fundraiser: donating to support vital year-round programs for Victoria communities; and spreading the word with maritime music.   \n\n\n\nSong Ambassadors recorded videos representing eight favourite and classic sea songs and sea shanties\, which will be pitted against one another each week of the campaign. Until June 24 the public are invited to vote on weekly match-ups to help the Museum declare a 2024 Champion Song!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow can you support this fundraiser?\n\n\n\nDonate to the Maritime Museum of BC in support of their programs: to help share maritime experiences with communities in Victoria\, and give staff the resources to continue their impactful work.  \n\n\n\nVote for a sea song and\, if you like\, share why you love it and what we’re doing here this summer at the Maritime Museum of BC! Voting is free and you can listen to all the songs on our blog [link] while discovering some of their context and meaning.  \n\n\n\n\nDonate!\n\n\n\nVote for Songs

SUMMARY:Maritime Masterclasses: A West Coast Trail Preparation Primer
DESCRIPTION:Prepare for your West Coast Trail adventure with experienced hiker\, Chantal Webb! Learn what to pack and what to leave behind\, get insider tips for booking the trail\, and gain essential hiking knowledge\, including trail etiquette\, wildlife safety\, and navigation techniques. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a first-timer\, this primer ensures you’re ready for a successful and unforgettable journey.  \n\n\n\nThis program does not require registration\, but you can register to ensure your spot. It is included in the cost of admission or with a MMBC membership. \n\n\n\nInstructor Chantal Webb has been a runner her entire life. After 28 years\, she decided to offset some of her running with hiking\, to reduce the strain on her joints.  \n\n\n\nBeing the type of person who jumps into everything with both feet\, the first hike she wanted to do was an 8-week\, 1\,000 km section of the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). After planning and training for a year and a half\, she hiked for 6 weeks and achieved 700 kilometers.  \n\n\n\nChantal was happy to find that she loved hiking – with the scenery\, challenge and occasional solitude – and learned a lot! She returned to the PCT last year for 3 weeks and 350 kms and will return this year for a month and 500 kms. She hiked the West Coast Trail last summer and really enjoyed the difference in the experience from dry California to muddy Vancouver Island.
