SUMMARY:Indigenous Experiences in the Revolutionary War
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous people have lived in the Champlain Valley since time immemorial\, and the American Revolutionary War brought many changes to their homelands and lifestyles. In this free\, hour-long program\, we’ll talk about the complicated relationships that the Six Nations\, Abenakis\, and Mohicans each had with the British and American sides\, and we’ll explore the Revolutionary War with a focus on Indigenous experiences. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: Key to Liberty has a wheelchair accessible ramp on the side of the building that points towards the waterfront (near Pine Grove). You can get to the building using either gravel paths or grass\, and if you want to minimize how much time you have to spend on uneven terrain\, you can enter through the Visitor Center right from the parking lot and exit through its other entrance. This event can also be held in the Visitor Center upon request by emailing museumeducator@lcmm.org at least 24 hours before the event.

SUMMARY:Environmental Justice on Lake Champlain
DESCRIPTION:While climate change impacts nature and ecosystems\, it also impacts people and their communities. To address these impacts\, a movement called environmental justice aims for solutions that benefit all communities equally. At this free experience\, learn about some of Lake Champlain’s environmental justice issues and which communities they disproportionately impact. You’ll also have the opportunity to reflect on action you can take as a steward of Lake Champlain.  \n\n\n\nAccessibility: Grass or gravel paths lead to the Clean Water Act area\, and two wheelchair-accessible ramps lead up to the platform on either side. To avoid travel over grass or gravel\, this event can also be held in the wheelchair-accessible Visitor Center upon request by emailing museumeducator@lcmm.org at least 24 hours before the event.

SUMMARY:Learn to Row!
DESCRIPTION:Photo credit: Buzz Kuhns\n\n\n\n\n\n**Due to strong winds predicted for the afternoon\, this event has been cancelled.** \n\n\n\n\n\nRow in one of our iconic pilot ­­­­gigs! Open to all rowing experience levels\, beginner to expert\, this 2-hour experience gives you the opportunity to learn how to row (or practice your rowing skills) in these large wooden rowing gigs and explore Lake Champlain from a new perspective. Participants must be 10 or older\, each boat seats 6 rowers. Younger children are welcome to join to join along for the ride\, but they will not be able to row.  \n\n\n\nBe sure to bring clothing that can get wet\, as well as water to stay hydrated. We will provide longboats\, oars\, and personal flotation devises (PFDs). We also recommend you bring a hat and sunscreen to stay protected from the sun. This program is weather-dependent and we will communicate cancellations on the morning of the scheduled outing. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The boats are stable but wobbly\, so a good sense of bodily balance is helpful. There is an 18 inch step-down from the docks to the boat. The boats are stationed at the waterfront in North Harbor with a moderately steep gravel path that leads to an ADA accessible dock. For accommodations\, please contact staff at onwater@lcmm.org. \n\n\n\nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:21st Century Developments in Nautical Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:Almost 250 years after the Revolutionary War\, many vessels from the war are no longer present. Yet\, nautical archaeology at historical sites can still uncover new information about important events by using technologies such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs)\, metal detectors\, and sonar. In this free program\, learn about Revolutionary War events that happened along Lake Champlain and what our research can still teach us about them today. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: Key to Liberty has a wheelchair accessible ramp on the side of the building that points towards the waterfront (near Pine Grove). You can get to the building using either gravel paths or grass\, and if you want to minimize how much time you have to spend on uneven terrain\, you can enter through the Visitor Center right from the parking lot and exit through its other entrance.

SUMMARY:The Many Faces of Prohibition
DESCRIPTION:Before federal prohibition in 1919\, Vermont’s era of prohibition lasted from 1853-1903\, with its own complexities\, debates\, and anecdotes. At this free experience\, learn about the different groups of people in Vermont that Prohibition affected\, as well as its lasting impact and relevance today.  \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The path to the Prohibition exhibit is gravelly or involves movement over grass. However\, this event involves few artifacts specific to the exhibit location\, so it can be held in the wheelchair-accessible Visitor Center upon request by emailing museumeducator@lcmm.org at least 24 hours in advance. Exhibit is located in the Lakeside Outdoor Gallery.

SUMMARY:Birding & Boating
DESCRIPTION:Join us on ­­­­canoes for a 2-hour program of paddling and exploring the birds of Otter Creek. This family-friendly program welcomes everyone from beginners to experts! Smaller children can take a middle seat at the bottom of the boat\, where they will just go along for the ride\, no paddling required. Learn tips and tricks for paddling on the water\, or just come to explore the birds of Lake Champlain Basin. \n\n\n\nBe sure to bring clothing that can get wet as well as water to stay hydrated. Bring your own pair of binoculars\, we will have a couple pairs to pass around\, but not enough for everyone. We will provide canoes\, paddles and personal flotation devises (PFDs). We also recommend you bring a hat and sunscreen to stay protected from the sun. This program is weather-dependent and we will communicate cancellations the morning of the scheduled outing.  \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The boats are stable but wobbly\, so a good sense of bodily balance is helpful. The boats are stationed at the waterfront\, a moderately steep gravel path that leads to an ADA accessible dock located in North Harbor.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:ROV Shipwreck Tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore a shipwreck… without getting wet! There are hundreds of historic shipwrecks in Lake Champlain. Join us as we take a tour boat to the site of the Champlain II shipwreck and go for a “dive” using an underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Our robotic camera sends back real-time video to an on-board monitor as we share the vessel’s dramatic story. Don’t miss this incredible experience- for all ages!  \n\n\n\nWe will gather on the Museum green at 10:00 am and proceed to Basin Harbor as a group at 10:10 to begin the tour\, which will run from 10:30 to noon. The walk to Basin Harbor is approximately a half-mile on pavement\, and visitors may drive if needed. For accessibility requests and information please contact us by email at info@lcmm.org or by phone at 802-475-2022.  \n\n\n\nTickets are $25 for kids and $40 for adults. \n\n\n\nPlease note that due to recent historic rainfall and flooding in the region\, the lake level has been higher than average. The lake is perfectly safe to enjoy by boat\, but higher water levels create conditions in which our small ROV may not be able to dive. No matter the lake level\, you will still be able to go on a boat tour\, see shipwreck footage\, and hear exciting stories!
