The Gleason Family YMCA has generously donated a 3-month family membership (normally a $249 value) to help with the MJP Memorial Scholarship Canal Cruise.

We will be holding a silent auction aboard the cruise and this membership will go to the lucky highest bidder. This membership can be used at the Gleason Family YMCA in Wareham, or can be used at other YMCA’s in the South Coast area, which may interest out of town cruisers.

Don’t forget though – you’ll need your Canal Cruise ticket to come aboard and join in the fun! Tickets are on sale now and they are $30 for adults and $15 for kids 12 and under. Send an e-mail to MJPScholarship@gmail.com or purchase them from one of our many ticket sellers in the area. Tickets can also be purchased by regular mail by sending a check payable to “Mary Jane Pillsbury Memorial Scholarship Fund” with a note with a name and address where tickets may be sent to:

Mary Jane Pillsbury Memorial Scholarship Fund
P.O. Box 431
West Wareham, MA 02576
