Yesterday, LB Class XLIII embarked on an unforgettable Transportation and Tourism Day that was nothing short of extraordinary. The adventure continued at Port Everglades, where Assistant Port Director, Port Chief of Staff, and LB Alumni Peg Buchan gave us insider knowledge about one of the busiest ports in the nation. Leadership Hollywood alumna Alinda Montfort, Port Communications Manager, led a fascinating behind-the-scenes tour that left us all in awe with all they are doing at the Port. #PortEverglades Leadership Broward Foundation

Seafarers help make sure ships operate safely and efficiently. They often spend weeks onboard and miles away from their families. On Thursday, our Deputy Port Director Glenn Wiltshire joined Seafarers' House at Port Everglades and Father Sandy to thank the seafarers for their work and gift them snacks, card games and toiletries. #porteverglades #browardcounty #cargo #cruise #seafarerslife
