Nicholas and Parker continue their journey through heavy fog without AIS, Navionics, Radar, or any other instruments besides a chart, clock, and a compass while crossing the treacherous Greys Reef and into the Great Lakes Shipping Lane to encounter a Freighter running up suddenly behind them!

Using only blind chart plotting, will they safely make their way to the Mackinac Bridge? And all the while not getting run over by a Freighter?

Beaver Island Birding Trail Festival—Warblers on the Water
May 24-26, 2019

The 6th annual Beaver Island Birding Festival, Warblers on the Water, will be held on May 24-26, 2019, on Beaver Island, in northern Lake Michigan. The island is a spring migratory song and shore bird mecca with over 200 species of birds recorded from the island. Registration is limited and birders are urged to register early through the Beaver Island Birding Trail website at

http://www.beaverislandbirdingtrail.org.

Transportation to the island is via ferry or air taxi. Lodging is available on the island, and transportation for the various field trips will be provided to registered participants. More information about transportation, food, and lodging is available on the website.

Researchers and expert field trip leaders will lead trips to some of the island’s 30+ birding sites. Whether you are a novice or expert birder there will be something for you during this Memorial Weekend event. The birding trips are flexible and use local guides to get the most out of your exploration of the northern Lake Michigan islands’ history, natural resources, and scenery. A featured field trip to High Island which lies to the west of Beaver Island is scheduled for registered participants. Presentations on the history of Beaver Island and the night sky are also scheduled.

On a secluded Island out in Northern Lake Michigan, there is a local game of skill that everyone in the US can now participate!

When will the buoy sink this spring? It's a game of skill!

The Ice Classic Tower is freshly painted and in place on Paradise Bay. So, the clock is now running on your chance to have some fun and help support PABI by entering the 2019 Ice Classic.

All you need to do to win is predict the date and time this spring that the Ice Classic Tower will fall through the ice.

Tickets to enter your carefully researched and scientifically supported prediction are just $5 each or five for $20.

The person who picks the correct date, hour and minute the tower goes into the water receives half the proceeds. The other half goes to support the BIC Center and WVBI.

NOT ON THE ISLAND? You can still join in the fun!
You can view the Beaver Island Michigan Ice Classic Buoy on the Community Centers We**am HERE: https://wvbi.biccenter.org/webcams
