Freighter Golf: Around the Great Lakes

Bring your family to the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship for a creative twist on mini golf. This special activity features five custom putting holes, each designed around one of the Great Lakes. As you play, you'll discover stories and facts about the region's maritime heritage and landmarks. It's a great way to learn about Great Lakes history while having fun competing on the green. The best part? Freighter Golf is included with your Museum Ship admission, so there's no extra cost to play. The activity welcomes families, friends, and solo visitors throughout June. If you're looking for an extra incentive, try your luck at the weekly hole-in-one challenge—winners get a free museum membership. Whether your kids are competitive golfers or just curious about Great Lakes culture, this is a lighthearted activity that works for a variety of ages and interests.
