I know Suzanne Murphy and a couple others were working on a lighthouse cruise for the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan for August of this year. Does anyone know what the status is of this event or of a similar event?

Jen, you should contact Suzanne. I believe the cruise(s) are a go, and she is collecting deposits from those who want to participate.

I have heard from Jeff and Linda at Big Bay Lighthouse. They normally have tours available June through September on Wednesday and Sunday @ 1, 1:30 & 2:00 pm reservations are not required.
We can arrange for a group tour or tours on other days if we have more than 10 people interested in touring.
I think the best days would be either Thursday August 5th or Friday August 6th. The times available would be 1:00, 1:30, and 2:00 p.m.
Please let me know if you are interested in doing this and if so, your day and time preference.
