You are currently viewing September 18, 2019 – Let’s Get Social!

​EB’s social media channels will soon reflect some new, exciting changes. While there will still be frequent photos from EB events, as well as the popular historical snapshots, you’ll also see posts that have a different look and feel.

The photo above is the first post from one of EB’s new social media campaigns, #EBBUILT. This campaign will feature quotes from individuals who have attended or spoken at an EB event, such as a keel laying or christening. The other campaigns, #ONTHISDAY and #SUBCULTURE are also launching soon – keep an eye out to see what they entail!

If you haven’t done so already, follow Electric Boat’s social channels, and check in over the next few weeks for this new campaign content. As new media is uploaded to the social channels, feel free to offer any feedback or suggestions you have, including what you’d like to see more of. All feedback can be sent to ebcommunication@gdeb.com.
