Auction time!

Sorry it's been so long since my last post. This is a crazy time of year at MHA with the Auction just a week away, boats getting ready to sail, new programs to launch, finishing the final phase of the Restoration Shop, and gearing up for the Schooner Festival!

The shops are a buzz of activity everyday with the Voyageur canoe being built, several restoration projects under way, and the Welcome boys getting her ready for haul out and a busy summer schedule.

Thank you to all of our volunteers for their dedication! Madeline headed off in the fog for Northport today to participate in the re-lighting of the South Manitou lighthouse on Saturday, and Welcome will head to Northport Sunday for her haulout on Monday morning. The Leelanau Enterprise will be on the scene to get pictures and do a story on her and the many hands that have worked so diligently for so long.

Hope to see you all at the shop or on the water very soon.
