Since 2016, our colleagues from Clipper Vacations have been able to offer homeless children and their parents a special moment of rest and relaxation in cooperation with the Seattle based charity organisation Mary’s Place. Over the course of two days in June 2018, families were welcomed aboard the “San Juan Clipper” again to enjoy a laid-back day on the Salish Sea and a visit to the picturesque town of Friday Harbour.
The kids and their families relished the moments with each other and their friends, the views of their hometown’s surroundings and – an absolute highlight – for most of them the very first encounter with the orcas, the Lords of the Salish Sea. Mary's Place and Clipper Vacations thus want to enable concerned families to a carefree day spent together, gathering new impressions and new strength to continue on their way to a better future.
