The fifth annual Maritime Alumni Challenge was completed on May 21 and included Mass Maritime, Cal Maritime, SUNY Maritime, and the winner, Maine Maritime Academy.
This is all about participation, not dollars raised.
The heads of all three schools falling behind Maine will be wearing MMA attire at a morning formation when classes begin.

“WE’RE BACK,” says Bangor Sea Dogs alumni chapter president, John Burns ’85. “Not that we ever really went away, but now we are the new and improved Sea Dog chapter and looking for alumni, both young and old, to get back on board and join us for the telling of some old sea tales or about some faraway country you visited on one of your cruises.
“Maybe you even have an old story about ‘Bucko’ or ‘Mrs. T’ you would like to share (for you younger guys, we will fill you in later on whom they were). Or, if you just want to stop by and share in some refreshments, that’s fine too.”
The Sea Dog chapter is among the largest of MMA alumni association chapters and encompasses alumni in the greater Bangor area. “The number of alumni in our surrounding area totals in the hundreds,” says Burns.
“Whether it’s a barbecue or a golf outing we are looking to schedule or a deep-sea fishing adventure out of Bar Harbor that we are putting in the works, come aboard and enjoy a good time.”
