Navy Preparing for Seabee Summerfest
The Naval Construction Battalion Center in Port Hueneme will roll out the red carpet when it hosts its Seabee Summerfest on June 24 and 25.
The annual event is a chance for the Navy base to show off its personnel, equipment and special skills during a weekend-long festival featuring a full-scale military parade, ship tours of the Comstock, silent drill team demonstrations, a carnival, arts and crafts, a motorcycle and car show, musical entertainment and athletic contests.
The sports competitions are open to the public and include softball, 4-on-4 basketball and volleyball. A four-mile shore-to-ship run Saturday will offer trophies for the first- and second-place finishers in six categories. Registration for the run is $20, which includes a T-shirt.
For more information or to register for any of the sporting events call: 982-5173.
The festival also features a car show with 17 categories and a custom bike show. Every motorcycle that enters the gate will be automatically entered into the show.
Visitors should enter the base through the Pleasant Valley Road or Victoria Avenue gates. Gates will open at 10 a.m. Saturday and at 11 a.m. Sunday. Admission to the festival is free.
