29th Annual Trinidad Blessing of the Fleet

Trinidad

The Trinidad Fishing Community invites you to join us for the 29th annual Blessing of the Fleet on Thanksgiving morning, Thursday November 28th at 10:00 a.m. at the Harbor Overlook on the corner of Trinity and Edwards Streets in Trinidad. Everyone is welcome. It is a family friendly event.
This is an opportunity for our community to come together and bless the fishermen, fishing families and Coast Guard of our community. Axel Lindgren III and his family will give a traditional Native blessing followed by a blessing from Reverend Nancy Streufert. The Trinidad Rancheria will warm us up with complimentary coffee, hot chocolate and snacks. Music is by DJ Kevin Held.
Each year the Trinidad School 4th grade students draw pictures of the fishing boats and write poems to honor our fishermen. One drawing will be used for next year’s poster. Be sure to check out their colorful art on display that morning at the Blessing. This year’s poster was drawn by Keiki.
Our event is made possible THANKS to our sponsors: The Greater Trinidad Chamber of Commerce, Cher-Ae Heights Indian Community of the Trinidad Rancheria and Murphy’s Trinidad Market.
For 29 years a group of hard-working commercial fishermen’s wives and loved ones put on this event at the start of crab season to send some love and blessings out to all of our local fishermen. Our extended community is encouraged to come join us in sending as many blessings as possible to the dedicated men and women who work on the water.
Come enjoy and share this local gathering!
