ACHF Preferred Vendors
ACHF Preferred Vendors are recommended to help insure that events held on the premises will be a positive experience. Working with an ACHF Preferred Vendor will assure the client of receiving the highest quality of food and/or service. It will further insure the success of the event by providing a vendor familiar with the museum’s facilities and the required procedures and policies necessary to assist its staff and protect this historical ship and her valuable artifacts.
