Reverie Plans

Reverie has posted some cruise plans here.  This is on the home page to remind members of this feature of our website.

 

Commodore Acheson Honored

The Community Foundation of St. Clair County, Port Huron, MI, will give GLCC Commodore Jim Acheson a lifetime achievement award on June 11. The honor is given for his extraordinary personal support and dedication to philanthropy, along with the 65 years of support from the Acheson family.

Spring Rituals

Here's an excellent account of beginning the new season, written by Jim Wooll...

 

Another GLCC

Don't be confused—this newcomer group is the "Great Lakes Cruising Coalition," designed to promote passenger cruise liners on the Great Lakes. Details here...

June Lifeline On-Line

The June issue of Lifeline is available for download here. The printed version will be available in approximately three weeks. Note that the on-line version does not contain the event-registration forms for the Rendezvous, rallies, and other events—these forms are available on the "Events" pages...

 

A Different Cruise

 A different sort of cruise began on Lake Superior at Two Harbors, April 6. Captain Tommy Cook started his trip through the Great Lakes amidst ice and snow, with the eventual goal of exiting the Lakes via the St. Lawrence, then sailing up through the Northwest Passage, arriving in Alaska next fall.

Après Rendezvous

We expect that a number of members will want to cruise into Lake Ontario after the Rendezvous. Details on a RCYC visit and Lake Ontario cruising possibilities here...

Marathon Mill Closing

GLCC members Phil and Balt Thibert report on the closing (and perhaps re-opening) of the Marathon mill dock in Lake Superior and recommend that other members e-mail the Marathon Tourist Board. Details here.... And an update here (see the comment at the end of the harbor report)...

Google Earth Adds Great Lakes

 The Google Earth internet viewer has now added the Great Lakes to its "oceanic" views. With the viewer, you can see underwater features of all the Great Lakes. Details are here... Note that you will have to download and install a viewer add-on to make the program work.
