SEMA has been selected for the 

2011 This Place Matters Community Challenge! 

This program is sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

We did the ground work - down from over 250, our community was chosen to be one of 100 finalists competing for 3 cash awards. 

Now it's your turn to help us win! 

What can you do? Go to the Schooner Ernestina page and cast your vote.

Fill in your email address (this will be your user name) and zip code and click submit.

This will bring you to a list, scroll down to Schooner Ernestina-Morrissey Association and click to bring you back to the Ernestina page.  Now you need to go to your email account and get the password that NTHP has sent you.  Use this user-name and password to fill in the blue box to log in and then click to vote for Ernestina.  That's it!  Let's go viral with this.
