PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 15, 2010 -
The Social Media Campaign will include a Facebook Fan Page, a Twitter account, a LinkedIn profile, and a Blog. The MCBM will of course continue to release newsworthy items to the media.  

The Museum’s mission is to collect, restore, and preserve maritime and yachting history through educational programs and exhibitions. Since 2009 when it moved to the Indian Riverside Park, it has enjoyed a steady increase in attendance.  Stewart-Leach looked for a more effective way of advising the public about the many fascinating presentations, upcoming events and special programs the Museum offers, as well as encouraging feedback from visitors.

The resulting Social Media arena will inform, educate, promote membership and participation from boat owners and the general public. The Facebook Fan page will allow followers and guests to post comments about their experiences and share photos with family and friends. The Website Blog will offer more details about upcoming events, displays and educational programs, as well as discuss the Museum’s broader place in the community. The Twitter feed will announce exciting happenings almost as soon as they occur.

MCBM is located in the Francis Langford Pavilion at the Indian Riverside Park along the Indian River Lagoon, in  Jensen Beach, Florida.  With its interactive play fountain, butterfly garden, fishing pier, walking paths, four picnic pavilions, and Frances Langford Center (available for private parties), the Park has become Martin County’s jewel.  The Museum’s neighbors at the Park include the Children’s Museum of the Treasure Coast, U.S. Sailing Center, and the Mansion at Tuckahoe.
