Event Navigation
This presentation features Stephen D. Tongue, author of Lanterns & Lifeboats – A History of Thunder Bay Island and is co-hosted with the Thunder Bay Island Lighthouse Preservation Society (TBILPS).
Beginning with the voyage of Le Griffin in 1679, Thunder Bay Island has provided shelter along Lake Huron’s rocky shore. Lanterns and Lifeboats connects the history “above the water line” with TBNMS’s efforts to preserve and interpret the area’s fascinating underwater archaeology. Tongue will give an overview of the island’s fascinating connection to our rich Great Lakes maritime heritage. 6:00pm-7:00pm
