Cleveland Underwater Explorers CLUE

CLUE divers have successfully raised the bell of Cortland
for the Great Lakes Historical Society.

On Tuesday, August 22, 2006 CLUE divers David VanZandt, Kevin
Magee and Great Lakes Historical Society diver and Archaeological
Director Carrie Sowden successfully raised the bell from the bark
Cortland. The bell was raised under a permit obtained by the Great
Lakes Historical Society from the Ohio Department of Natural
Resources. It was transported to Cleveland, Ohio, and then to the
Great Lakes Historical Society in Vermilion, Ohio, for preservation
and display.

CLUE would like to thank Chris Gillcrist, Executive Director of the
Great Lakes Historical Society, for the opportunity to participate in
this historic endeavor.
