The SS United States remains an icon of American design and engineering, capturing the imagination of young people across the globe with her miraculous survival and boundless future potential, and inspiring the next generation of scientists, designers and innovators.
Young artist and supporter Ryan Miller, age 14, recently took a visit to the Apple Store as an opportunity to produce an extraordinary digital drawing of the SS United States. Ryan's father, Scott Miller, reached out to share: "Since the products are on display for all to see, Ryan thought it would be the perfect place to draw a picture of the Big U to raise awareness."

Today, the Conservancy needs all hands on deck to help us rescue and restore this extraordinary vessel. SS United States enthusiasts of all ages can play a crucial role in spreading the word about America's Flagship.
Below, check out a few creative ideas for parents, teachers and students:
Make a model of the SS United States
Make a presentation to a class, all-school assembly or scout troop meeting on the history of the SS United States and the urgent need to save her
Draw or paint the SS United States – and don't forget to send us a photo!
Set up a classroom blog about the SS United States
Build boats and race them against each other, as students recently did at Tenafly High School's "William Francis Gibbs Interscholastic Engineering and Design Competition"
Create “Save the United States” travel posters to help spread the word
Design your own passenger ship that can be turned into a troop ship. What safety features would you include?
Design or color your own ship propellers – and learn all about pioneering female engineer Elaine Kaplan
Design a math worksheet for calculating distance and speed for ships
Compare how long it took for the SS United States, the Queen Mary, the Mayflower, the Santa Maria and other famous ships to cross the Atlantic, and try to calculate their speeds
Compose a song about the SS United States. One classroom in California performed the ship’s special song – First Lady of the Sea – on their ukuleles!
At 990 feet, the SS United States is longer than three football fields! Go to a large outdoor area and measure out the ship’s dimensions with flags or marking chalk
