Screening of the Official TTSO Video

Once again, the tall ships sail Commencement Bay …

Shot by volunteer videographers during the festival, the video provides a behind-the-scenes look at the ships and the people who brought this amazing event to Tacoma.  Included are interviews with volunteers, participants and guests.   Onboard footage of the magnificent Parade of Sail, the Puyallup Tribe Canoe Family’s welcome to the ships in Quartermaster Harbor, cannon battles and much more!

Tacoma, an award-winning Port …

For the second time in a row, Tacoma won the prestigious Port of the Year Award from the American Sail Training Association for organizing this successful event.  Come join the TTSO Board of Directors and friends of TTSO to get a glimpse of what made this festival such a success.

Your support of TTSO helps bring these amazing vessels back to Tacoma and helps support local youth sail training opportunities, as well as pay any outstanding debts from 2008.

Special thanks to the volunteer videographers who shot the footage and Ron Finney, video pool manager and owner of North Woods Productions, who edited and produced the DVD. An extra special thanks to Galaxy Theater for its support by donating its facility to host this special event.
