A once-in-a-lifetime experience aboard a Great Lakes freighter could be your prize for supporting the good works being done in your community.
The Noon Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay is partnering with Interlake Steamship Company to raffle off a spot for up to six guests on a Great Lakes freighter to support the Rotary Club’s local service projects and community initiatives throughout Door County.
Departing from either Duluth, Minnesota, or Marquette, Michigan, the 3.5- to 5-day cruise takes you behind the scenes of commercial shipping operations while offering private stateroom accommodations, views of the Great Lakes and cuisine you can only find on a freighter.
Rotary Club member Amy Kohnle says the winner and their guests will get an authentic experience.
An allotment of 150 tickets is on sale now for $200 ahead of the April 30 drawing. Participants must be 18, have a valid passport and be flexible with their scheduling during the 2026 shipping season.
The Noon Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay has held nautical-themed spring fundraisers for years, dating back to when the organization hosted its shipyard tours.
