SUMMARY:5th Maine Annual Meeting and Talk on Abandon Ship! Mishaps and Maydays on Casco Bay
DESCRIPTION:Annual Meeting and Lecture by Curator Susan Hanley\nAbandon Ship!  Mishaps and Maydays on Casco Bay\nOur Annual Membership Meeting is this Thursday\, August 13 from 5pm to 8pm. Please RSVP here. A light supper will be served on the porch starting at 5:30pm\, followed by a “State of the Fifth Maine” update from the board. \nThen at 7pm\, we will move into the Memorial Hall for a presentation open to all. We are honored to present museum Trustee Susan Hanley as our speaker this year. \nThis season we are excited to open a new exhibit that focuses on shipwrecks and ship emergencies in Casco Bay. Ranging from the desperately tragic to the merely inconvenient\, these incidents help the visitor understand the dangers and complications of water travel before radar\, depth finders\, and other navigational aids made vessels safer. \nOur exhibit team has been hard at work all winter to tell the story of local shipwrecks—some famous\, some relatively unknown\, including one that happened on Peaks Island! How wrecks resulted in improvements in navigational aids or regulations is woven into the narrative. Hands-on elements add fun to the experience! \nCongratulations and thanks go out to our exhibit team: \nGuest Curator: Susan Hanley\nExhibit Designer: Eric Eaton\nProject Manager: Holly Hurd-Forsyth \nThis exhibit is generously\nsponsored by Island Lobster Co.
