—Wayne Barry, retired Lansing Community College instructor and communityadvocate
—Joanie McGuffin, Administrator of the Lake Superior Watershed Conservancy and long-time Lake Superior paddler and author
Ms. McGuffin will highlight LSWC’s 5-year project in partnership with Trans CanadaTrail to build and connect a 600-mile section of the Lake Superior Water Trail along the Canadian North Shore between Whitefish Bay and Thunder Bay. This connection is part of two superlative trails: 1) The Great Trail, an 18,000 mile ocean
to ocean to ocean trail across Canada and 2)The total Lake Superior Water Trail encircling the greatest expanse of freshwater on Earth. This trail has been an opportunity for LSWC to develop partnerships basin-wide for the health and wellbeing
of the Lake Superior watershed.
Mr. Barry’s presentation builds on the international aspect of this water trail project. He and his wife Joanne undertook research trips to gather the existing American Lake Superior Water Trail data in Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota for LSWC to build the connection between nations and truly make this an international
“Appalachian Trail of Water Trails.”
