America’s first cement ocean-going vessel "Faith" was built in a Redwood City shipyard and launched from the port there in 1918. It never saw military action as the Armistice was signed a few months later (Redwood City Public Library). (Coincidentally, we are thinking of holding our fall conference in Redwood City, and perhaps locating our offices there as well).

- Conference – Wayne got more detailed info on the Seaport Conference Center, which we’re considering. It has a nice waterside location in Redwood City. We’ll be working on finding a date and starting organization, stay tuned!
