undersea. The participation of more than 9,200 students and families in these programs demonstrates the public's interest in and appreciation of opportunities the museum provides for learning. All of the great things our museum accomplishes every year are made possible by our exceptional team. In 2018, all nine of the museum staff received On-the-Spot Awards from the Naval History and Heritage Command recognizing their dedication to the highest levels of professionalism in our field. Throughout 2018 the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum staff and stakeholders embarked on an update of the museum’s Strategic Plan. We were able to reflect on the museum’s many accomplishments throughout the past five years and plan where we wish to grow as an institution. I believe the next three years will be as dynamic as the past five have been. I look forward to 2019 knowing that the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum will continue to prosper with the strong support of the U.S. Navy, the public, the volunteer staff, and the Naval Undersea Museum Foundation. We are well-positioned for the future, and with every new exhibit, program initiative, and outreach effort, we are furthering the mission of our museum. Thank you for your partnership and investment in our wonderful museum. All the best, Lindy L. Dosher Director 4
