Stand Up for Great Lakes!

Stand Up for Great Lakes!

We reflect on this amazing summer and a group of Michigan men that made an ~80 mile, 24-hour, nonstop, sleepless trip across Lake Erie on stand-up paddleboards to raise awareness for the complex problems facing our Great Lakes. The Stand Up for Great Lakes Lake Erie Fundraiser was donated to support students and Great Lakes research at CIGLR. Our institute is beyond grateful and amazed at this team’s motivation, strength, and persistence to make a difference and quite literally “Stand Up” for our beautiful Great Lakes!
