Heritage 

 

Mark your calendars and register now to attend the 24th annual Gales of
November, the Lake Superior Marine Museum Association's annual maritime
conference and fundraiser.  

 

The two day educational, fundraising and networking event begins Friday,

Grandma's Sports Garden.  The luncheon's keynote speaker, Cathy Wurzer, the
senior anchor and host of "Morning Edition" at Minnesota Public Radio will
present "Tales of the Road-Highway 61".  Friday afternoon provides various
tour options including a mini Canal Park Art Walk, a tour of the Lake
Superior Maritime Collections at the University of Wisconsin-Superior, and a

Opening Gala reception, sponsored by Lake Superior Magazine, at the Lake
Superior Maritime Visitor Center in historic Canal Park.

 

Gales of November festivities resume at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, November 5 at
the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center.  The day is filled with
maritime related educational breakout presentations, mini trade show, an
interactive "maritime activities area," silent auction, and an opportunity
to win the summer 2012 Cruise of a Lifetime raffle on the 1,000-foot Edwin
H. Gott.  Saturday's keynote luncheon presentation, "A Look Beneath the
Surface," will feature the Executive Director of the Duluth Seaway Port
