Families Build Their Own Boats
The program was offered by the Oswego Maritime Foundation, the H. Lee White Marine Museum with support from the SUNY Oswego Technology Department.
In the tradition of beloved local storyteller, Mrs. Rosemary Nesbitt, we will gather at the Museum’s historic 1925 New York State Derrick Boat No. 8 for a night of mysteries, myths and ghost stories. Well-known tales told over the years will be presented as well as stories involving shipwrecks and disappearances.
The event will be multifaceted, centering around an unveiling of the new indoor exhibit focusing on the history and significance of the National Historic Landmark Tug , LT-5, during World War II and afterwards. The vessel is proudly berthed on the west pier by the Museum, in Oswego’s Historic Maritime District.
The H. Lee White Marine Museum along with representatives from the Town of Oswego recently unveiled a new exhibit highlighting Medal of Honor recipient and Town of Oswego civil war hero, James H. Lee and his service aboard the U.S. Sloop of War, Kearsarge during the Civil War.
