Night at the Museum: ShipwreckedTonight, Thursday, August 24th from 7 – 9 pm the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston will be hosting Night at the Museum: Shipwrecked! Join us for a night of live music, interactive activities and refreshments.

 

It was a calm, clear night when the SS Comet set sail across the Great Lakes. Like many nights such as these, it was smooth sailing as far as the eye could see. Who would have guessed that in just a matter of hours, the ship would sink below the waves of Lake Ontario, taking all but a few of her passengers with her. Will you go down with the ship or succeed in reaching a lifeboat?

Throughout the evening, you are encouraged to interact with Museum staff to solve the mystery, discover actual shipwreck artifacts and take part in interactive games and activities. At the end of the night, all will be revealed… Who snagged a spot in a lifeboat, and who remained aboard our sinking ship? Prizes are up for grabs for those who solved the mystery!

This is an 18+ event. Tickets are $20 and include admission and a drink ticket; additional non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages are available for purchase.

The Museum is excited to partner with Something in the Water Brewing to offer an evening of music, socializing, and food & drink services.

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
