Port of San Diego Pays Tribute to Tuna Cannery Workers
	For many years, canneries provided a means of subsistence for thousands of families in San Diego. The first canneries started in the 1910s and lasted until the Van Camp Cannery closed its doors in 1984. At the height of the tuna cannery success, the industry brought $65 million in annual economic impact to the San Diego region and employed more than 17,000 people. Each year, hundreds of tuna boats brought tuna from the sea right up to the canneries’ back doors. Familiar brands like Chicken of the Sea, Starkist, and Breast ‘O Chicken were packed in the San Diego canneries.
It is only fitting that an industry that had such a large impact on the community be remembered. The Cannery Worker's Tribute - Parque del Sol public art project, honoring the thousands of San Diegans who worked in the tuna canning industry, will be dedicated at 10:30 a.m., Saturday, Sept. 26, 2009. The artwork is a joint project between the Port of San Diego and Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding/Continental Maritime. Created by artists Valerie Salatino and Nancy Moran of Nature Works, Inc., an Escondido sculpture firm, with assistance from Sheila Moran, the artwork incorporates several elements that tell the story of the cannery workers.

Garcia Named Athlete of the Week
