Signature Public Programs
Touch A Boat
Our free, fun, family event is a great way to kick off the summer and connect people to their harbor. Hundreds of people enjoy food, games, boat rides, and the opportunity to learn more through hands-on activities.
Part of the South Shore Race series, the #HarborDash will be held on nearby Peddocks Island, offering a fun course with amazing views of Boston Harbor. Proceeds support our new scholarship and mission programs.
