What is your favorite charity?

Today is Giving Tuesday. As the official shopping season for the holidays begins, it’s good to first consider other people or organizations that are in need. For instance, St. Jude provides children with terminal cancer medical treatment at no expense to their families. What is your favorite charity of choice? Share it with us today. We will choose one of your suggestions as our charitable recipient for Giving Tuesday.

Freedom is not free. We know this, but at times we forget. Thanks to all Veterans who served and gave so much so that we could have the freedom to live our daily lives. God bless you.

Bull and Bread Day 2019

11/1/2019

Picture
November 1st is Liberty Day also known as Bull and Bread Day in honor of the late and great Virgin Islander, David Hamilton Jackson. 
​
Mr. Jackson fought for our rights on many fronts. He was a civil rights activist, labor leader, judge, newspaper editor and so much more. Traveling as far as Denmark as a tireless advocate for local rights while we were under the Danish flag, he organized the territory’s first free newspaper and its first labor union. His efforts for equality for his people did not stop when we were transferred to American rule; he also lobbied for US citizenship.

One has to wonder what he would do if he was alive today. Nevertheless we continue to pay him homage by remembering his legacy and striving to emulate his love for his home and its people.

Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day

10/14/2019

Comments

 
'Known as a counter celebration to the infamous Columbus Day, Indigenous Peoples’ Day is now celebrated in many parts of the Americas. Many now recognize the fact that Christopher Columbus murdered and enslaved the people he found in this hemisphere of the world.

​As West Indians and Virgin Islanders, many of us have Indigenous heritage and ancestry. As a result, we celebrate today October 14, 2019 as Indigenous Peoples' Day and we commemorate the contributions and sacrifices of the Caribs, Arawaks, Taino, Ciboney and all of the original people of our beloved Virgin Islands and their descendants.

Reminder: Love City Car Ferries, Inc operates the Vic branded black and white car ferries. If the vessel does not have Vic in its name, you have boarded another company’s vessel. We do not operate all the car ferries in the Virgin Islands, only the Vic branded ones. Keep our brand in mind if you desire to do business with us. Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day.

Update on our fleet: Love City Car Ferries, Inc. owns 3 car ferries in the Virgin Islands, M/V Capt Vic, M/V Island Vic and M/V Grand Vic. As many of you may already know, the M/V Island Vic was destroyed in the storms. Minor repairs on this vessel is currently being done. Major repairs will require the vessel to be moved to a shipyard.  The good news is that that M/V Capt Vic is finally at dry-dock for its bi-annual inspection.

The M/V Grand Vic is fully operational and therefore
 available for your transportation needs between St. Thomas and St. John. Please keep in mind that we only operate the Vic branded ferries, which are black and white vessels . If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact us at 340-779-4000. For more information, please revisit the original fleet update post: Fleet Update.  Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Memorial Day Facts

Memorial Day is the day that we memorialize those who bled and died while still in military service or as a result of wounds sustained during their time of service. It's distinct from Veteran's Day because Veteran's Day honors all Veterans living or dead, whether they served in war time or times of peace. At 3:00 pm local time, the national moment of remembrance, let us take a moment to thank those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We are forever grateful.
  • The common red field poppy (Papaver rhoeas) is a symbol of Memorial Day;
  • Memorial Day began as a result of the Civil War;
  • On May 5, 1868 Major General John A. Logan issued General Orders NO. 11 set aside May 30, 1868 for decorating the graves of the fallen;
  • Memorial Day was first called Decoration Day;
  • President Ulysses S. Grant presided over the first Memorial Day ceremony;
  • The National Moment of Remembrance at 3:00 pm local time was established by Congress in 2000.
