Many nations, states attracted to Ludington Park and history
Nearly 4000 people - from places as diverse as Alaska and Australia - found their way to the Delta County Historical Museum and Sand Point Lighthouse this season.
The two facilities, located in Ludington Park and operated by the Delta County Historical Society, closed after Labor Day.
Headcount tallied at the lighthouse showed a total of 3455 visitors from Memorial Day to the first week of September. In addition, roughly 400 people toured the lighthouse/museum as part of school field trips, bus tours and group visits.
July was the biggest month for admission, according to lighthouse attendant Bud Stegath, with 1336. (August came in at 1178, June at 776, and September 165).
The historical museum saw visitors from all but eight states - Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island and Wyoming - plus Puerto Rico. Visitors from abroad included residents of Canada, Germany, Sweden, Ireland, Thailand, Taiwan, Australia, Oman, Japan, Jamaica, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Mexico, Switzerland, Tanzania and France.
Besides current staff of Stegath, Dale DeLisle, Lori Rose and Don Brunelle, the DCHS welcomed new attendants Jackson Ciofu, Katie Manning and Todd Rose. New afternoon museum volunteers included Lois Nordin, Julie Newburg and Joanne Holland.
The historical society now looks forward to its holiday bake sale and Christmas at the lighthouse, but especially 2013 and the groundbreaking for a new historical center combining the museum and archives.
Noted physician and 1949 Escanaba High School alumnus Dr. John Beaumier recently announced a major donation to fund construction of the facility in Escanaba's sesquicentennial year.
In addition to increasing museum display space, the project will allow for a new and improved research center, accessible restrooms and more room for documents and artifacts.
