Executive Director Joe Snowberger anf FSBDC staffer Paul Arrington outside their facility.
Joe Snowberger was out in the hallway at the Landing telling everyone about the need to bring the USS Charles F. Adams downtown. His nonprofit is leading the way...
Tell us about your
idea...
Our idea is to establish Florida's Naval Warship
Museum aboard the USS Charles F. Adams (DDG-2) as Jacksonville's newest
attraction. Located on the beautiful and historic St Johns River, Downtown
Jacksonville's USS ADAMS MUSEUM will be an entertainment centerpiece for area
residents and visitors from around the globe. While honoring vets and sharing
the story of the sea services, the USS ADAMS MUSEUM will be a center of
education and vocational stimulation for kids focusing on the Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics plus History (STEM+H) disciplines.
The USS ADAMS MUSEUM will provide 30 full time jobs, over
20 part-time jobs and 75 in-direct jobs with an annual economic impact of over
$4M while stimulating other Downtown economic activities.
Why did you decide
to do One Spark?
Easiest decision ever...hundreds of thousands of
people at the world's only crowd funding festival? Duh!
How has One Spark been for you so
far?
Wonderful! ONE SPARK has exposed our
"Gift to Jacksonville" to many new people and engaged our whole team. We have
made very significant new connections, signed up many new members and new
volunteers.
What is next for you after One Spark?
Take advantage of the wave of momentum we have from ONE
SPARK and launch a multi-tiered fund raising campaign..."BRING HOME THE
ADAMS!
Location: The Landing #20372
