We have launched off our 2010 season with a Special Invitation to visit the museum. We have many new displays and new pictures of Inductees.  We also have some new items in our gift shop. 

On May 8th we will be celebrating the 45th anniversary of the sinking of the Cedarville. We will conduct a bell ringing ceremony and a get together for the occasion. 

 2009 was a great year for us at the Great Lakes Lore Maritime Museum. We conducted many, many programs to honor those who made their livings on the Great Lakes and those who have gone before us. There are ceremonies planned to honor those lost on the Carl D. Bradley, Cedarville and Daniel J. Morrell and the Edmund Fitzgerald. 

We are looking forward to greeting many new members this year and expect to have some of you write to us to induct a loved one or great friend into the Museum's "Hall of Fame". Please contact us to get the name of the one or ones you would like inducted and we will walk you through the process. 

In August, we will conduct our annual "Gathering". See the section marked EVENTS for more details. 

Please contact us with any questions you may have about the museum, inductee information or to schedule a tour.

Thanks and Happy Sailing,
David Erickson 
President and Museum Director
