After the cruise, participants will be provided maps for directions to the U.S. Coast Guard Station for a tour of the Buffalo Lighthouse, courtesy of the Buffalo Lighthouse Association.  Experts in aquatic biology, birding, fisheries, and geology will provide information on the formation of the lake and river, the fishing, birding opportunities, and features along the waterfront.  After the cruise, a board member of the Buffalo Lighthouse Association, Inc. will provide a tour and discussion on the restoration of the Buffalo Lighthouse.

The cost of the cruise and lighthouse tour for Penn Dixie members - $22 adults, $19 children and non-member adults - $25, children $22.

This cruise generally sells out, so do not wait to long too make your reservation.  A confirmation letter will be sent out to all registrants upon receipt of paid registrations with directions of where to board the Miss Buffalo boat at the entrance to the Erie Basin Marina.
