Christmas Ship Concert

Lee Murdock's holiday concert commemorates the turn-of-the-century tradition of carrying Christmas trees to port cities during the days of sailing on the Great Lakes. At the end of the lumber season every year, Great Lakes captains would carry one final cargo, heralding the holiday season with a deck piled high with fresh-cut evergreens and garlands. Murdock has written a popular song about one of the more famous of these ships, The Rouse Simmons. Pick up free tickets at the Checkout Desk.
