Local Attraction: USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park
Anyone traveling on I-10 East encounters one of the top local attractions along the Gulf Coast. The USS Alabama has been entertaining & educating visitors for for nearly five decades. The park opened on January 9, 1965.
I was fortunate to tour the battleship memorial in the fall of 2022 during one of the reenactment days! Visitors can watch as dozens of volunteers play various roles aboard the ship. I'll post the schedule for the Living History Crew Dates for 2023 below!
Admission rates can be found by clicking here.
I wanted to wish Rhonda Davis, Director of Sales & Marketing the very best in her retirement. She has served the Battleship Memorial Park for eight years and brought incredible changes to the department. She coordinated and produced over 2000 events. (Wow) She worked tirelessly to build the park's social media presence, developed a new website and launched a new advertising campaign that increased global brand awareness. I had the pleasure of meeting her during my Visit Mobile Ambassador training. I was very impressed with her level of professionalism and knowledge. She will be missed!
As promised, here is the schedule:
Visit Mobile Ambassador Program
Speaking of the Ambassador Program, a new "class" will be offered this spring. Reach out to Allison Floyd by emailing her if you are interested. afloyd@mobile.org
I highly recommend everyone signing up to learn more about the Port City. It was very enlightening to visit the most popular attractions along with some lesser know locations. The entire program lasts six weeks with three all day, in-person sessions. There is a modest fee however you will receive a visitor's pass for countless properties.
Grab a friend or family member and sign up today! You'll meet so many fellow residents and learn so much about the history of our city.

In the Book Corner!
Girl, Stop Apologizing by Rachel Hollis is an easy & enjoyable and MOTIVATING book for female entrepreneurs. Her honest and raw approach to focusing on your goals was fresh and inspiring for the New Year! I've been reading a chapter per day and just finished this best seller!
Goals are just dreams with work boots on! ~ Rachel Hollis
She has a novel approach to achieving her intentions and shows her readers how to work backwards. You have to know where your finish line is before you can map out a plan. Definitely worth reading!

So we are approaching the end of our second week of the year 2023. This is the time that many folks quit their New Year's resolutions. I encourage you to keep with your new intentions. There is a Sanskrit word for the quandary that many of us struggle with. Samsara means the habitual continuation of negative or destructive behavior. Learning to dismiss a samsara is a powerful tool and will lead to a long term life change. Remember your thoughts about something are very powerful and can lead to great success. Have a wonderful week! ~ Charlsie
