Hawk Owl Helper logoThank you to everyone who worked for a safe departure of the T/S State of Michigan on its annual spring cruise Tuesday. Great Lakes Maritime Academy cadets and crew must either be vaccinated or quarantine and test negative for COVID-19 prior to departure. The ship will be at sea for five months, until Oct. 25, providing an opportunity for 140–160 cadets to earn required sea time. Read more here and see a map of the cruise here.
