Western NEW YORK Regional Information Network
 >> http://wnyrin.com/ <<
This newly redesigned web portal includes thousands of pages of 
information and maps about western New York! The site offers searchable 
listings of parks and recreation resources along Lake Erie, extensive 
directories of public services, and a gateway to western New York tourism.


WETLANDS of Ontario
 >> http://www.on.ec.gc.ca/wetlands/intro-e.cfm <<
Not land or water, but a fluid combination of both, wetlands are among 
the most productive habitats on Earth. This website presents information 
on progress made regarding wetland conservation and science in Ontario, 
including the rehabilitation and securement efforts that are underway 
around the binational Great Lakes region.


Bancroft, Arnesen EXPLORE the Great Lakes

On May 17, 2002, explorers Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen began kayaking 
along the north shore of Lake Superior to Duluth, Minn., then set out

Great Lakes LIGHTHOUSE Keepers Association
 >> http://www.gllka.com/ <<
The Great Lakes Lighthouse Keepers Association is a non-profit 
organization that facilitates the accumulation and exchange of 
information about the histories of lighthouses (and their keepers) so 
that life at these stations may be accurately interpreted, their history 
preserved, and a new generation of preservationists developed.
