Do you remember Roger Unger? Roger worked on the ships in the 70's I believe. He's a volunteer now with the restoration. He is the one making the pens from the dance floor wood. You should come down to see the ship this August.
The song was "Summer Madness" but I remember Bob-Lo trips as "Summer Gladness", Michigan can really be a depressing place in the winter and even more depressing without places like Bob-Lo. This is why my girl and I are getting the HELL away from here!!!
I Don't Blame you Daron. We have lost everything here. Instead of capitalizing on the uniqueness of the things we had and getting the word out so that people would come to these places, this state likes to get rid of everything! We had a beautiful island amusement park that we shared with Canada!
I still can’t believe that we lost 2 beautiful historic boats and a huge beautiful island. That Island could have been turned into one hell of a park that would have brought a lot of revenue to not only our area but Canada as well. Where else could you take a 1 ½ hour boat ride to an island amusement park? It’s a damn shame!
We had the oldest State Fair in the country! But what do we have today? We lost Edgewater, Boblo, then the State Fair. Then they complain that kids are committing crimes because there’s nothing for them to do! Hello! Wake up Michigan! I’m counting the days too when we can finally leave this state!
thanks for the video. I worked as a deck hand and in the engine room 75-76. I remember a lot of the people in the video.
This is so awesome! Oh and I love the music lol.
Thats great! You should come down and see the ship. Have you ever been on any of the reunions?

It's a jazz song they use to play on the moonlight cruise.
