Program Description

Event Details

Want to know more about the equipment that Inland Seas uses to monitor our Great Lakes and on their Schoolships? Learn about the tools of their trade and the importance of this organization to protecting our greatest freshwater source on planet Earth!

Inland Seas Education Association (ISEA) has provided learners of all ages with hands-on experiences aboard traditionally-rigged tall ship schooners, along the shores of the Great Lakes, and in local rivers, streams, and wetlands. As a non-profit organization located in Suttons Bay, Michigan, their mission is to inspire a lifetime of Great Lakes curiosity, stewardship, and passion in people of all ages. Their goal is to provide people with the information they need to become stewards of the Great Lakes.

This event is meant to introduce ISEA as a Great Lakes monitoring organization. There are hands-on elements but it is primarily an informational presentation. It is built for Adult and STEAM-interested student (6th - 12th grade) audiences.
