Event Description
Blessing of the Fleet
Garibaldi. Coast Guard Memorial 
May 23, 2015
Garibaldi, Oregon

 

 Every year since 1981 on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, fishing village residents and visitors, gather at the Coast Guard Memorial to remember those local members of the fishing and maritime industries whose lives have been lost at sea.

Prayer ceremonials are steered for the safety of those who continue to earn their living on the water.

This event features Coast Guard personnel, guest speakers and local and regional dignitaries.

Afterwards, units of the local fishing fleet, led by a Coast Guard vessel, head out to sea to place flowers on the ocean.
