DESCRIPTION:Free Tour: Mare Island Naval Shipyard: The Navy in Vallejo \nFounded in 
 1854, Mare Island Naval Shipyard became the Navy’s largest civilian 
 shipyard, employing 40,000 during its peak production in WWII. Enjoy this 
 walking tour guided by longtime Mare Island activist Myrna Hayes, and see 
 the former production facilities and living quarters of this remarkable 
 place. Hear about the women welders, and see the workshops of those who 
 built, maintained and serviced Naval Ships until the base closed in 1996, a 
 proud achievement of our peace movement commonly known as turning swords 
 into plowshares, in this case, a park.  Bring a lunch to enjoy at the 
 picnic grounds before the afternoon program.  Finally, pay respects to 
 those who have passed on at the Mare Island Cemetery.  Ferry Service is 
 available from San Francisco Ferry Building, and public transportation is 
 also available from the DelNorte BART station.\n For more information call
