A great intro for any curious angler in grades 5-8\, join us as we head out onto the ice in the Museum’s harbor to learn the basics of winter ice fishing with our friends at Vermont Fish & Wildlife’s Let’s Go Fishing program. We’ll learn about the gear needed\, hole drilling\, using a rod and jig\, knots\, ice safety\, and fish identification. No gear needed. Please dress warmly (in layers) and wear winter boots. Yaxtraxs or ice cleats are also a great idea for traction. If the ice is deemed unsafe\, we will cancel and send around notifications by email. \n\n\n\nThis is one of two ice fishing clinic days available. There is another clinic on February 24 from 9 am–3 pm.

This virtual conference will be presented on Zoom Webinars and is free to attend. Please register in advance to receive the direct conference link by using any of the “Register Now” buttons.

In this presentation\, learn about the possibility of using these affordable underwater drones for photogrammetry surveys on underwater archaeological sites. The Revolutionary War gunboat Spitfire will be used as a case study in the application of this technology and will demonstrate the impressive results that it can generate as we share the recently completed photogrammetry survey information and new 3D model. \n\n\n\nPaddlewheels Ahoy! Archaeology of the Oldest Existing Steam Propulsion SystemDr. George Schwartz\, Underwater Archaeologist\, US Navy History and Heritage CommandPhoenix (1814-1819) is the earliest archaeologically-studied steamboat. Phoenix operated for five seasons until it suddenly burned and sank in Lake Champlain in September 1819. In the 2010s\, the hull was documented and studied by the Institute of Nautical Archaeology (INA) and the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum\, but no sign of the paddlewheels were found. Then\, in September 2020\, lake surveyor Gary Lefebvre encountered two large half-buried disks 3/4 of a mile from the Phoenix wreck site. The research team is documenting these disarticulated paddlewheels and studying their connection to Phoenix. These remains are believed to be the earliest-known paddlewheels in existence and represent a technology that ushered in a worldwide transportation revolution. The project aims to integrate the research results into the hull reconstruction and expand our limited knowledge of early steam propulsion technology. \n\n\n\nArnold’s Bay Research Project: Underwater Research and FindingsCherilyn Gilligan\, Assistant Director of Archaeology\, Lake Champlain Maritime MuseumIn 2020\, Lake Champlain Maritime Museum was awarded a National Park Service\, American Battlefield Protection Program grant to survey the American Revolutionary battlefield in Arnold’s Bay\, in Panton\, Vermont. General Benedict Arnold burned the remaining vessels of the American fleet at this site to prevent their capture by the British in 1776. Research goals for this project are to use metal detection underwater and on land to define site boundaries and locate battlefield features. This presentation will focus on the 2022 dive season\, present our latest findings\, and share some preliminary analyses from the new archaeological research being conducted at this site for the first time in 35 years. \n\n\n\nHowitzer Cannons and their Role in the Revolutionary War on Lake Champlain: Archaeological Research Unveils a Key New Detail in Arnold’s BayEdwin Scollon\, Research Associate\, Lake Champlain Maritime MuseumIn October 1776\, control of Lake Champlain was contested by British and American forces through a series of naval engagements over the course of three days. Those engagements took place between New York’s Valcour Bay and Vermont’s Ferris Bay. From surveys of Valcour Bay between 1999 and 2006\, Lake Champlain Maritime Museum researchers uncovered ample archaeological evidence of the British use of howitzer cannons during that crucial\, first day of battle. In the Museum’s 2022 survey of what is now known Arnold’s Bay\, Museum researchers would discover evidence that the American Navy also had a howitzer at their disposal; a fact that was lost to history until now. Museum Research Associate Ed Scollon will discuss how this discovery was brought to light. He will also discuss the use and advantages of howitzer deployment among the fleets and how the American howitzer may have helped deprive the British of Arnold’s flagship\, Congress\, as a prize of war. \n\n\n\nBenedict Arnold’s 1776 Flagship Congress: Initial ExcavationChris Sabick\, Director of Research and Archaeology\, Lake Champlain Maritime MuseumDuring the 2022 fall fieldwork in Arnold’s Bay\, Museum researchers had the opportunity to excavate a single trench across a portion of the Row Galley Congress hull remains. This initial excavation trench revealed a number of important structure elements of this poorly understood vessel type. In this presentation\, Director of Research and Archaeology Chris Sabick will examine the vessel components exposed during the excavations\, what they can tell us about the construction of Benedict Arnold’s flagship and what they suggest we might find as excavations continue in 2023. \n\n\n\nLive Q & A with Lake Champlain Maritime Museum’s Archaeology teamChristopher Sabick\, Cherilyn Gilligan\, Edwin Scollon\, and Dr. George Schwartz \n\n\n\n\nRegister Now\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis program is brought to you with generous support from:\n\n\n\nChamplain Valley National Heritage Partnership \n\n\n\nNational Park Service American Battlefield Protection Program \n\n\n\nGeoff and Susan Nelson \n\n\n\nVermont Arts Council \n\n\n\nVermont Humanities URL:https://www.lcmm.org/event/virtual-archaeology-conference/ LOCATION:Zoom Webinar\, Online ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.lcmm.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Virtual-Archaeology-Conference-5-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20221110T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20221110T173000 DTSTAMP:20221104T131157Z CREATED:20221103T184313Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221104T131157Z UID:10000540-1668096000-1668101400@www.lcmm.org SUMMARY:Let's Talk Water!
