$A Beacon\u2019s Tribute: How Split Rock Lighthouse Honors the Edmund Fitzgerald$

Join Hayes Scriven, Site Manager of Split Rock Lighthouse, as he shares the history of the annual Edmund Fitzgerald Memorial Beacon Lighting. Now in its 40th year, this moving tradition continues to honor the 29 sailors who lost their lives in the 1975 tragedy. Hayes will highlight how the ceremony began, how it has grown over the decades, and how in recent years it has expanded its reach through a strong online presence, allowing audiences near and far to take part in the remembrance.
