Annual Edmund Fitzgerald Commemorative Beacon Lighting Every year - TopicsExpress



          

Annual Edmund Fitzgerald Commemorative Beacon Lighting Every year on Nov. 10, the beacon is lit to commemorate the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald and all the other vessels lost on the Great Lakes. This event offers the only time during the year that visitors can see the interior of the light tower when the beacon is lit. The lighthouse and the fog signal building will be open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The lighthouse will close temporarily at 4:30 p.m. while the names of the 29 lost crew members are read to the tolling of a ship’s bell. Following the ceremony, the beacon will be lit and the tower once again opened for visitors to tour. MY BEST SHOT OF THE NIGHT!!! 11-10-14
