Calling all Volunteers
The Galesville Maritime Heritage Festival Needs you!
The inaugural Galesville Maritime Heritage Festival will launch on October 3,
2026, bringing together the people, stories, boats, music, and traditions that
have shaped our waterfront village for generations.
Presented by the Galesville Heritage Society, this free community festival
will celebrate four centuries of Chesapeake life with narrated boat tours,
a classic boat parade, tours of the historic Hartge Yacht Yard, Watermen’s
demonstrations, live music, local history exhibits, food, and much more
throughout the village.
This event is being built by volunteers and local partners who believe
Galesville’s heritage deserves to be shared and preserved for future
generations. But to make this new tradition a success, we need the
support of our community.
We are asking residents, families, businesses, and friends of Galesville
to consider making a tax-deductible contribution to help fund festival
expenses including music, exhibits, transportation, signage, safety
services, and educational programming.
No contribution is too small. Whether you give $25 or $250, your support
will help showcase the unique spirit of our waterfront community and
ensure that admission remains free for everyone.
We will also happily take contributions of your time! We need volunteers
on and around the day of the festival, October 3. Please consider setting
aside a couple of hours to help out!
To contribute or learn more, visit Galesville Maritime Heritage Festival
at galesvilleheritagesociety.org or contact the festival committee at
[email protected].
Together, we can launch a new Galesville tradition.
