The annual Dock Party will kick off SST 2025 on Saturday, May 17, marking the beginning of an exciting two-month semester at sea aboard TS Kennedy. All are invited to campus from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM to tour the 540-foot training ship and enjoy live music, face painting, barbecue and Blue Bell!

All activities are free and open to the public. Tours are offered first-come, first-serve. All ship tours require closed-toe shoes. No skirts or dresses, please. Ship tours are only available for those five years old and up due to safety protocols.
