Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
COLLECTIONS & EXHIBITS: IN 2021, THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC CONTINUED TO AFFECT THE MUSEUM WITH A PERIOD OF CLOSURE OVER THE WINTER AND REDUCED CAPACITY OR ABILITY TO CARRY OUT SOME PROGRAMS (I.E. SUB TOURS AND FIELD TRIPS). A 9 MONTH STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS WAS UNDERTAKEN THAT SETS THE STAGE FOR THE MUSEUM FOR THE COMING YEARS. THIS INCLUDES SIGNIFICANT COLLECTIONS AND EXHIBITS UPDATES, UPGRADES, AND CLEARING OF BACKLOGGED PROJECTS. GROWING OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE STATE OF WISCONSIN AND THE NOAA SHIPWRECK COAST NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY WILL DRIVE MUCH OF OUR COLLECTIONS AND EXHIBIT AGENDA FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS.
EDUCATION (PROGRAMS FOR ADULTS AND FAMILIES) - PRIOR TO COVID-19 SHUTDOWN, THE USS COBIA OVERNIGHT PROGRAMS SERVED MORE PARTICIPANTS THAN EVER BEFORE IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE YEAR. WHILE THIS POPULAR PROGRAM WAS UNDERSTANDABLY PUT ON HOLD DURING THE PANDEMIC, WE CONTINUED OVERNIGHT PROGRAMMING FOR FAMILIES WITH OUR SUBBNB PROGRAM, AS WELL AS CONTINUING WITH VIRTUAL FIELD TRIPS FOR STUDENTS AND GROWING OUR OPTIONS OF BOTH ONLINE AND IN-HOUSE EDUCATION AND OUTREACH OFFERINGS. BY THE END OF THE YEAR, EDUCATION PROGRAMS WERE ON TRACK TO RESUME PRE-PANDEMIC LEVELS OF PARTICIPATION.
USS COBIA-RELATED WORK: CONTINUED HULL AND INTERIOR MAINTENANCE WORK; CONTINUED WORK ON ENGINES; CONTINUED IMPROVEMENTS TO THE INTERPRETATION OF USS COBIA.
