Chairman & Chief Executive Officer’s Report In late 2006, after 24 years of continued service as a Museum, Intrepid was temporarily closed for a massive overhaul and restoration. This $115 million project included demolishing and rebuilding Pier 86 where the Museum is based, dry-docking and repairing the 47,000-ton Intrepid, completely restoring the interior of the vessel, creating a brand new exhibit architecture, restoring many aircraft in the collection and acquiring several new aircraft and making substantial changes to the organization structure and managerial goals of Intrepid. The two-year project was completed on time and on budget, and Intrepid reopened in November 2008, better able than ever to serve our visitors and to honor our nation’s military personnel and veterans, and Thank you for reviewing the annual report of the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum.

Intrepid’s Journey to Become the Most Inspiring Adventure in America: a look at her incredible renovation and reopening.

On October 1, 2006, the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum closed for a complete restoration that included the dry-docking of the Intrepid, ship repairs, the rebuilding and conversion of Pier 86 to a brand new, park-like public pier, the restoration of numerous aircraft and the installation of exciting new exhibits throughout the ship.

The entire renovation project, which included an inside and out paint job for the 65-year-old aircraft carrier and restoration of spaces never before available for public viewing, cost approximately $115 million and took less than two years.

Perkins+Will, a Chicago-based firm, was selected to work with the Intrepid’s exhibits department and curators to redesign the Intrepid’s Hangar Deck exhibition space.

EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES

Core Academic Programs “INTREPID SAILS” — CATCH THE WAVE!

On December 5, 2006 as the ship left New York City and was escorted down the Hudson River to Bayonne, New Jersey, she displayed a banner that read “Intrepid Sails To You.” This moment marked the launch of Intrepid’s outreach programs, in which the Museum’s content was brought into school classrooms, libraries and communities in the five boroughs of New York City.

Through our numerous programming initiatives,

EDUCATION HAS BEEN CRITICAL TO INTREPID’S MISSION SINCE THE DAY SHE FIRST OPENED TO VISITORS MORE THAN 25 YEARS AGO.

More Ways to Explore Intrepid In addition to its many education programs, Intrepid offers its ever-popular Scavenger Hunts (K–12th grade) where students explore the Museum in search of fascinating facts, exhibits and areas of the ship where the crew lived and worked. Intrepid continues to offer “Intrepid Sails,” where educators bring valuable hands-on activities and lessons into schools. In 2008, more than 300 students were served by CASA (see page 14), which consists of a combination of six program sessions at designated schools and the Museum.

Leadership Programs Building upon the Intrepid’s powerful symbolism as an icon of service, our leadership institute, speaker programs and youth development events are dedicated to developing the next generation of civically engaged leaders. Each program is designed to imbue in students a greater sense of community so that they are inspired and empowered to serve in their own communities, to overcome challenges and to reach their goals.

THE POWER OF ONE — 6TH—12TH GRADE

This speaker’s program introduces students to members of the community who speak candidly about overcoming life’s challenges. It is based on the notion that a single, moving and inspiring event can change a person’s life — or at least can start him or her on the road to change. This program is funded by grants and is offered at no charge to the students and schools who choose to avail themselves of this unique and highly rewarding program.

LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW (LIFTT)

In LIFTT, a cohort of 50 New York City high school juniors (11th grade) participates in a series of monthly programs throughout the school year to develop skills in leadership, team building, peer mediation, public speaking, conflict resolution and goal setting.

Students work with

external partners who are experts in specific skill-building areas, and students put their honed leadership and communication skills to practical use devising and executing a community service project. In 2009, these projects reflect local community issues related to the environment and green initiatives. Through our ongoing LIFTT Alumni network from its pilot year in 2005, we are proud to report that students have gone on to such colleges as CUNY, SUNY, Queens College, Penn State, Virginia LIFTT builds leaders for today and tomorrow.

State, St. Johns University and Syracuse University, and most LIFTT alumni reported that they continued their community service activities in college.

WEEKEND DEMONSTRATIONS

Intrepid educators help weekend visitors investigate sea, air, space and life at sea through educational demonstrations on the Exploreum’s Discovery Deck and on roaming “discovery” carts. Intrepid’s exciting demonstrations are free with admission.

As it passed opposite Lower Manhattan, the ship paused, all tugboat engines in neutral, at the World Trade Center site in a momentary tribute to those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. Former crewmembers unfurled a 60-foot American Flag, the same flag that flew over Liberty Plaza in the days immediately following the attacks and inspired countless New Yorkers who went to work and school in Lower Manhattan each day.

2007–2009 ANNUAL REPORT | 33

Affiliated Organizations The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum’s success led to the development of several other important efforts to serve the military and veteran communities through the Intrepid Family of Foundations. These sister organizations share the crucial goal of supporting the men and women of the United Stated armed forces, veterans and their families INTREPID FALLEN HEROES FUND Established in 2000, the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund has raised more than $120 million in support of the families of military personnel lost in service to our nation, and for severely wounded military personnel and veterans. These efforts are funded entirely with donations from hundreds of thousands of individuals. One hundred percent of contributions raised by the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund go toward these programs; all administrative expenses are underwritten by the Fund’s Trustees and from interest earned on invested funds.

The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund’s newest project will assist wounded warriors who suffer from Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The Fund is building the National Intrepid Center of Excellence to support the research, diagnosis and treatment of TBI. Medical experts believe that due to the nature of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, TBI is much more prevalent in these modern conflicts than it has been in the past. It is clear that better care for TBI patients is needed — and deserved — by our brave servicemen and women.

Please give today to help those who have sacrificed so much in service to our nation.

INTREPID SEA, AIR & SPACE MUSEUM

INTREPID RELIEF FUND The Intrepid Relief Fund is focused on several areas of need in the military community: hardship support for military families, education for service members and their families and military health care.

The Fund’s principal program is Operation Mend, a unique partnership between UCLA Medical Center and Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. Operation Mend provides advanced plastic surgery care to military personnel who have suffered severe facial injuries from wounds sustained in Iraq or Afghanistan. Patients are transported to UCLA for treatment by the nation’s foremost facial reconstruction surgeons. Treatment usually involves multiple surgeries over one to two years. On each trip to UCLA, the patients and their families are cared for by Operation Mend staff and volunteers, including “Buddy Families” that each adopt a specific patient throughout treatment in the program. Operation Mend provides a caring environment for patients and families as they undergo long and challenging periods of treatment and recovery.

Please join this effort by supporting the Intrepid Relief Fund.

FISHER HOUSE FOUNDATION The Fisher House Foundation is a unique private public-partnership that supports America’s military in its time of need.

Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, the Fisher House Foundation donates “Comfort Homes,” built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers.

These homes enable military family members to be close to a loved one during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease or injury.

Annually, the Fisher House program serves more than 10,000 families and has made nearly three million days of lodging available to family members since the program began in 1990. There is no charge for any family to stay at a Fisher House. The Foundation is also proud to administer and sponsor Scholarships for Military Children and the Hero Miles program, which has provided thousands of airline flights to military families through donated frequent flyer miles. Fortythree Fisher Houses are in operation and 16 more are under construction or in design.

Please assist this effort to care for the families of our wounded heroes in uniform.
