If Dave Trotter and Ric Mixter are going to be making their presentations on the Frank H. Goodyear and the Edmund Fitzgerald, those two presentations are worth the price of admission alone, if you haven't seen them yet. They did a fantastic job with them at the Festival held in Feb.

Yes, dave is presenting the "Goodyear" collision story, while Ric will present his "Storms Of The Century" program which highlights many of the big storms of the 20th century including the Big Blow of 1913, the Armistice Day storm of 1940 and the Fitzgerald storm of 1975. Ric is one of only a few people who have visited the Big Fitz on the bottom of Lake Superior!

We'd also like the think the "S. S. Michigan" story itself is worth the price of admission! ;-) It's one of few Great Lakes video programs that includes a historical reenactment. We presented it at Ghostships in Milwaukee and were amazed at the overwhelming response. See you there!
