About Chuck's Summer Side Quest
The Missouri's Education Department invites young explorers and their families to join Chuck's Summer Side Quest, a FREE seasonal adventure designed for visitors of all ages.
This summer, Chuck the Iguana is leading adventurers on a special mission through our newest exhibit, The Boys Are Back in Town: 40th Anniversary of the Recommissioning of USS Missouri. Along the way, participants will uncover stories of the Mighty Mo's historic return to service, discover what life was like aboard the ship during the late 1980s, and earn a special souvenir prize upon completing their quest.
Whether you're visiting for the first time or returning to explore the ship again, this family-friendly experience offers a unique way to connect with history through the eyes of the Missouri's smallest resident.
Chuck's Summer Side Quest is included with Battleship Missouri Memorial admission and available at no additional cost for Mighty Mo Members.
