Her next appearance was at the Fort Atkinson Signature
event. She made history when she was selected as the stage for the
official release of the new keelboat nickel by the U S Mint. She was
given a blue skirt and her decks were readied for some distinguished
speakers. |

|
An armored car with $75,000.00 worth of nickels came in
and was readied for the first day release to coin collectors from all
over the country. |

“Best Friend’s” decks welcomed the likes of Gary
Moulton and the Governor of Nebraska as well as top officials from the
US Mint. |

After the release, many folks took an opportunity for
photos aboard. |

Her next stop would be Bismarck and a voyage into
the history books. |
