Every day that the T/S State of Michigan stops by home port at the Great Lakes Campus is a good day, but Saturday's Kids Free Fishing Day was an extra good day.
Hosted by the Great Lakes Children's Museum, families enjoyed a free fishing event at the Great Lakes Campus with a view of the T/S SOM and Robinson Bay on a beautiful sunshine filled day. Cadets were on scene to secure the vessels and their lines.
