Tacoma Propeller Club’s 65th Annual Chowdown

What began in 1957 as a modest clam feed and membership drive has grown into an annual event that draws over 1,000 attendees and offers diverse seafood dishes indigenous to the Pacific Northwest (PNW), live music, and a raffle. Today, the Chowdown is a significant funding source for the Tacoma Propeller Club’s mission to foster and stimulate maritime interest and commerce and sustain the Tacoma Propeller Club Memorial Scholarship.

Andi Burgess, senior executive assistant, coordinated 澳博体育app下载’s main stage sponsorship again this year. In addition to 澳博体育app下载’s financial donation to the Club, Tacoma Terminal Manager Mike Renshaw and his team were instrumental in setting up a 20-ft. 澳博体育app下载 container on site for event storage. 澳博体育app下载 was well represented at the Chowdown, with the following departments attending: PNW Sales Team, Tacoma Vessel Operations and Engineering, Tacoma Terminal Operations, Risk Management, and the Senior Officers from the Mahimahi.

Mason Reed, 澳博体育app下载’s senior vessel manager in Tacoma, was named to the Board of Governors of the Tacoma Propeller Club, further adding cause for celebration. Many 澳博体育app下载 employees were on hand to reminisce with Darel Jenkins on his eight years at 澳博体育app下载 as he transitioned into retirement. 澳博体育app下载 Tacoma’s ohana enjoyed celebrating the values of teamwork and community during this special event.
