Page 114 MEMBERSHIP NOTES • The Dossin Great Lakes Museum is pleased to announce that it has received a $26,000 matching grant from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to install the exhibit to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Great Storm of 1913. The disasters that occurred on Lake Huron will be the focus of the exhibit, for it was in that lake that the greatest toll of vessels took place. Visitors will see the world as it was in 1913, and how the storm destroyed vessels in that storm.

The annual Marine Mart will be held on Saturday, December 3rd from 10-3 p.m. in DeRoy Hall at the museum.

The Nipigon Bay was one of several ships converted from tankers to bulk carriers when shipping companies needed new tonnage after World War n. Unfortunately, the economic upswing in the last two years has not enabled the Nipigon Bay to be recalled back into service and she remains in limbo along with several others. This photo was taken by Don Richards in November, 1966. Telescope is produced with assistance from the Dossin Great Lake Museum, an agency of the Historical Department of the City of Detroit.
