University students prepare for a remote-operated vehicle dive while attending marine technology bootcamp training activity at Northwestern Michigan College. This year’s Great Lakes and Fresh Water Week (GLFWW), June 3-11, focuses on a few: exploring and enjoying our waters responsibly, learning about freshwater systems and how our actions affect them, and prepping for careers in Michigan’s water-centered blue economy. In Michigan, with water all around, there’s no shortage of ways to make a splash. ![]()
