To Serve Greeting Lions, Leos and Lioness, Wow, what a difference three months makes. Temperatures are up, grass is growing and needs cut, short sleeve shirts are out, and Lions are beginning to meet in person. What a good feeling that is. Seeing many whom we have not seen for many long months. Our State Council of Governors met two weeks ago in Harrisburg with their DGEs and 2nd VDGs along with several other Lions. The Council meeting went well in person as well as the Friday evening Counselors’ dinner and recognition of the Governors finishing their year as they become Immediate Past District Governors. What a great weekend. That was followed by our Multiple District Convention held virtually. For the first time (and hopefully, last), it went well. It is available on YouTube for those that did not get to see it live. Also, the list of those honored in the Necrology Service is on the PA Lions website. Next up is the International Convention that will also be held virtually. I have seen some previews of it, and it will be as if you were there in person. Please consider registering if you haven’t yet. The Parade, Flag Presentation, Plenary sessions, Entertainment and the DGE ribbon pulling will be online. If you have registered be sure to become a delegate for your club for voting. Now that we are beginning to meet in person, dust off those service projects that have gone stale and get them moving again. The needs are still big, and the team is ready to go. Let’s roll. There are so many opportunities that need filled. Why not work on a plan for the last month of this year but carry one forth for the 2021-2022 year. Report this service through MyLion and be sure you share with your local newspapers and social media pages. Give your club credit for those good works. With a new year around the corner, this is a great time for clubs to begin planning for the new year. Put that club calendar together with your budget so your members know what is happening and expected. Remember, plan the work, and work the plan. Stay positive and get excited about the new year coming. I am looking forward to hearing about super results from our Multiple District clubs. Please have a safe and productive spring. I am looking forward to seeing many more of our Lions in person as this year moves on. Keep up that positive attitude and keep on serving.

    ..-----m]1 1-------- Technical information on comprehensive planning, survey of cultural resources, and registration in ·NATIONALthe National Register of REGISTER·Historic Places. BULLETIN U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Interagency Resources Division Nominating Historic Vessels and Shipwrecks to the National Register of Historic Places James P. Delgado and A National Park Service Maritime Task Force* INTRODUCTION For over two hundred years, the United States relied on ships as connective links of a nation. Vessels crossing the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Pacific Oceans, and our inland waters made fundamen­ tal contributions to colonial settle­ ment, development of trade, exploration, national defense, and territorial expansion. Unfortunately, we have lost much of this maritime tradition, and most historic vessels have gone to watery graves or have been scrapped by shipbreakers. Many vessels, once renowned or common, now can only be ap­ preciated in print, on film, on can­ vas, or in museums. To recognize those cultural resources important in America's past and to encourage their preser­ vation, Congress expanded the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. Among the ranks of prop­ erties listed in the National Register are vessels, as well as buildings and structures, such as canals, drydocks, shipyards, and lighthouses that survive to docu­ ment the Nation's maritime heritage. Yet to date, the National Register has not been fully utilized for listing maritime resources, par­ ticularly historic vessels. Star of India, The National Register of Historic Places is an important tool FIGURE 1: built in 1863, is now berthed at the San Diego Maritime Museum. for maritime preservation.

    Shipbuilding and the Nascent Community of Greenpoint, New York, 1850-1855 Henry Silka Plusieurs constructeurs de navires connus et plusieurs jeunes charpentiers de marine ont été forcés de quitter la ville de New York en raison de l’augmentation excessive de la population et parce que le dévelopement industriel n’était pas réglementé. Ils se sont réinstallés de l’autre côté de l'East River, sur les rives de Greenpoint, sur une site rurale qui est rapidement devenue une communauté urbaine. Des jeunes charpentiers de marine tels que Eckford Webb et Edward F. Williams ont ouvert des chantiers navals près de ceux des éminents constructeurs de navire tels que Samuel Sneden, William Collyer et Jeremiah Simonson qui y avaient également déplacé leurs chantiers. Étant en exploitation pendant une période de croissance économique, ces chantiers ont mis à l’eau, pratiquement les uns après les autres, tant navires à vapeur qu'à voile. En moins de cinq ans après leur arrivée, la population de Greenpoint avait pratiquement décuplé. Virtually unknown until shipbuilders began opening yards there in 1850, the tiny hamlet of Greenpoint grew from a population of a few hundred to almost five thousand in the short span of five years. Shipbuilding was the largest of the industries that accounted for this remarkable growth. The shipbuilders enjoyed great initial success at their new locations in Greenpoint. However, rapid technological changes in their industry soon diminished demand for their wood-hull vessels and made their particular skills obsolete. This is a brief chronicle of their accomplishments in those years. Situated on the western end of Long Island, on the shore of the East River, Greenpoint is the northernmost community of Brooklyn, one of the five boroughs that comprise the modern city of New York.
