Set Up/Take Down: Teams are allowed in the Promenade to start setting up at 10:00 a.m. on May 10, 2024. Teams must supply their own tent, tables, chairs, trash bags and cooking supplies. Teams will also be required to supply their own power/heat.

REMINDER: When loading/unloading – no vehicles shall be allowed to drive on the promenade. Vehicles will be unable to pull up next to tent locations as in previous years. There will be a loading/unloading zone located in the driveway area just to the north of the museum’s entrance. This is a short distance from the loading/unloading area to the tent area. Even though it is a short distance, we suggest you take something to help you transport your tent/chairs/gumbo supplies from the loading/unloading area to your tent. Once you’ve unloaded, please park your vehicle in the Cruise Terminal parking garage. After the event, you may use this same loading/unloading area.

Gumbo: Teams are responsible for furnishing and serving their own gumbo. Any kind of gumbo is allowed. Teams may pre-cook and heat at the event. We advise that teams prepare at least 6-8 gallons. Teams are only to serve gumbo to event guests, who can be identified by the event wristband. Please direct guests without wristbands to the entry table.

Awards: Awards will be given to first, second, and third place gumbo teams, first place booth decorations and to “The People’s Choice” –a category which allows the guests to choose the gumbo they like the best.

Jars will be picked up at 7:00 p.m.

Gumbo/Judging Schedule: Teams will be given gumbo containers to use for judging and will be responsible for taking gumbo to the judge’s table located in the lobby café inside the museum.

State of the Port Luncheon
2025-04-24 11:45 - 13:00 | Mobile Riverview Plaza Hotel, 64 South Water Street, Mobile, 36602, United States
Join us for one of the most anticipated events of the year — the Annual State of the Port Address, presented by John Driscoll, Director and CEO of the Alabama Port Authority. This important event offers a comprehensive overview of the current performance, future vision, and strategic priorities of the Port of Mobile, Alabama’s gateway to global trade.

Held each year, the State of the Port Address brings together business leaders, elected officials, logistics professionals, and community stakeholders to hear first-hand insights into the operations and progress of one of the fastest-growing ports in the United States. As the Port of Mobile continues to expand its role as a critical economic engine for the region and the state, this address serves as a valuable touchpoint for understanding its current impact and long-term objectives.

John Driscoll will deliver key updates on infrastructure investments, cargo volume trends, intermodal connectivity, and the port’s role in strengthening supply chain resiliency. Attendees will also hear about recent project milestones, including the deepening and widening of the ship channel, expansion of container terminal capacity, inland port development, and advancements in technology and environmental sustainability.

This year’s address will place special emphasis on how the Port of Mobile is positioned to capitalize on emerging global trade dynamics, enhance regional competitiveness, and support economic growth throughout Alabama and the broader Gulf Coast. With an eye on innovation, job creation, and partnerships across the public and private sectors, Mr. Driscoll will outline how the port is rising to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving marketplace.

Whether you are a business owner reliant on efficient logistics, a policymaker interested in regional development, or a citizen invested in the future of Alabama’s economy, the Annual State of the Port Address offers critical insights and opportunities to connect with others driving progress.

Team registration INCLUDES tickets for 10 people. Note that all team members are required to have “tickets” (wristbands).

When registering, teams will select their 15’x15’ space on the waterfront. Please note this allows for a typical 10’x10’ popup style tent with nearly 2’ on either side between your tent and the next tent. Please note that tent locations are subject to adjustment pending the number of teams.

This is a rain or shine event.

Set Up/Take Down: Teams are allowed in the Promenade to start setting up at 10:00 a.m. on May 16, 2025. Teams must supply their own tent, tables, chairs, trash bags and cooking supplies. Teams are also required to supply their own power/heat.

REMINDER: When loading/unloading – no vehicles shall be allowed to drive on the promenade. Vehicles will be unable to pull up next to tent locations as in previous years. There will be a loading/unloading zone located in the driveway area just to the north of the museum’s entrance. This is a short distance from the loading/unloading area to the tent area. Even though it is a short distance, we suggest you take something to help you transport your tent/chairs/gumbo supplies from the loading/unloading area to your tent. Once you’ve unloaded, please park your vehicle in the Cruise Terminal parking garage. After the event, you may use this same loading/unloading area.

Tents are to be set up/erected with sandbags as anchors.

Cooking is permitted on paved areas only. An appropriate protection mat or barrier should be placed between the cooking equipment and paved area.

Propeller Club will provide bowls, spoons, napkins, gloves, which will be distributed to teams on the afternoon of the event. If additional supplies are needed, they may be picked up at the Propeller Club tent throughout the event.

Tents: Please notify Wendy Crocker (251-680-7716 or wendycrocker1@yahoo.com) of the company that will be installing your tent. Port City Rentals is a sponsor of the event. If you need to rent a tent, table or chairs we encourage you to use Port City Rentals since they will already be on-site. Weather permitting, Port City Rental will set up tents on 5/15/25 and tear down on 5/17/25. There is no overnight security, so we encourage you not to leave small, rented items overnight.

Gumbo: Teams are responsible for furnishing and serving their own gumbo. Any kind of gumbo is allowed. Teams may pre-cook and heat at the event. We advise that teams prepare at least 6-8 gallons. Teams are only to serve gumbo to event guests, who can be identified by the event wristband. Please direct guests without wristbands to the entry table.

Ticket Pick-Up: Teams can pick up tickets (and T-shirts if ordered) in advance at the National Maritime Museum of the Gulf of Mexico, 155 S Water St, Mobile, AL 36602 from 10:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 15, 2025; and from 10:30 a.m. – noon on Friday, May 16, 2025. If tickets and T-shirts are not picked up by noon Friday, May 16, 2025, they will be available at the registration table located at the event entrance on the south side of the National Maritime Museum of the Gulf of Mexico at 5:00 p.m. Additional tickets and T-shirts may be purchased at the event.

Awards: Awards will be given to first, second, and third place gumbo teams, first place booth decorations and to “The People’s Choice” –a category which allows the guests to choose the gumbo they like the best. For The People’s Choice, large plastic jars will be distributed to all gumbo stations and the team with the most tips will win “The People’s Choice Award.” Anyone can put money in the jar (team members included) and the tips go to The Propeller Club’s charity of choice. Jars will be picked up at 7:00 p.m.

Gumbo/Judging Schedule: Teams will be given gumbo containers to use for judging and will be responsible for taking gumbo to the judge’s table located in the museum (exact location inside the museum is TBD). Teams have the option to use their own container if there is nothing on the container that identifies the team’s name. Please note you will have to navigate stairs leading from the promenade to the inside of the museum. About one hour before the start of the event, The Propeller Club will deliver the gumbo containers to each team’s tent. At this time, you will also receive a time to take gumbo to the judge’s table. Winners will be announced between 7:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Gumbo will be judged on presentation, flavor, texture and aroma.

Garbage: All teams MUST use trash bags and clean all debris from your area before leaving the park. A dumpster will be provided for trash and located in the parking lot of the museum. Teams are to take their own trash to the dumpster and clean their area before exiting the park.

Parking at the Cruise Terminal Parking Garage

Bradley spent four terms in the U.S. House of Representatives serving on the Armed Services Committee and the Education and Labor Committee, where he chaired the Workforce Protections Subcommittee. He was appointed by two Speakers to the prestigious Rules Committee.

In Congress, Bradley was known as a fierce supporter of business and industry, often leading on important issues where his experience in labor law, workforce training, and education policy gave him a unique perspective. Bradley has led initiatives that have increased access to education and job training, benefiting Alabama’s workforce and businesses alike.Prior to serving in Congress, Bradley was an elected member of the Alabama State Board of Education and the Alabama State Senate and was appointed as the Chancellor of Alabama’s two-year college system.

February 2026 Luncheon
2026-02-26 12:00 - 13:00 | The Battle House Renaissance Mobile Hotel, 26 N Royal St, Mobile, Alabama, 36602
Join us for our February luncheon February 26 at 12 noon in the Moonlight Ballroom at the Battle House Renaissance Mobile Hotel.

Our guest speaker, Lindsay Cline, will be speaking on “The Future of the Fleet: The Nation’s Maritime Industrial Base Depends on Mobile, Alabama.”

Lindsay Cline is a national workforce development leader focused on strengthening America’s maritime and advanced manufacturing talent pipeline, particularly across the U.S. Gulf Coast.

In her professional role supporting the U.S. Navy’s Maritime Industrial Base, Lindsay works directly with shipyards, manufacturers, industry, education, private equity, and government partners to design and scale workforce strategies that address real production needs in shipbuilding and industrial manufacturing.

Her work spans credential development, education-to-industry pathways, employer partnerships, and large-scale regional collaboration – connecting education, economic development, and private equity to the evolving demands of the defense and maritime manufacturing sectors.

Prior to joining the MIB, Lindsay served as the president of education for Phillips Corporation, where she worked with over 800 schools worldwide to integrate advanced technology within traditional manufacturing programs. She also worked closely with private funders to secure over $30 million of scholarships and infrastructure support for students and schools. Her work resulted in her home state of Alabama quickly becoming a leader in both CNC and additive training at the community college level.

Prior to working within the manufacturing workforce space, Lindsay worked in public relations, which has been a key element to her work now. She is deeply passionate about ensuring that all residents and stakeholders within our maritime ecosystems are proud and passionate of the work happening inside our shipyards.

A non-traditional student who completed high school at age 43, Lindsay brings a deeply personal perspective to her work. Her career is driven by a belief that talent exists everywhere, but opportunity and visibility do not. She is committed to changing how communities, employers, and policymakers view skilled trades – and to ensuring that the people who build our ships, infrastructure, and industrial systems are recognized as essential to national security and economic resilience.
