The group, now joined by Upper Mississippi Waterway Association leaders, Gary Williams, executive director, and Jeremy Putnam, president, arrived in Memphis. While this was mostly a travel day, the group was able to fit in a last minute tour of one of American Cruise Line’s (ACL) vessels that was docked in Memphis. Because of the Pacific Northwest dams, ACL is able to run cruises on the Columbia-Snake River System, bringing millions of tourist dollars to the communities along the rivers.
