CROFTON proudly sponsored The Propeller Club, Port of Norfolk’s National Maritime Day Celebration aboard the USS Wisconsin last week. Our very own Camille Crofton Cherry presided over the event as this year’s Propeller Club President. The evening featured a moving wreath laying ceremony (conducted from the deck of CROFTON’s Cromo), awards and recognitions for outstanding contributions, and inspiring remarks from key members of the maritime community.
This annual event holds a special place in our hearts as it underscores the dedication and hard work of everyone in our industry. It’s a reminder of the vital role we all play in maintaining and advancing maritime safety and excellence.
