The Great Lakes Shipwreck Preservation Society Presents Its 22nd Annual Fundraiser: “Upper Midwest Scuba and Adventure Travel Show” (UMSAT) combines professional divers, shipwreck hunters, educators, and underwater photographers, videographers, and archaeologists in a fascinating day of unbelievable history and grand storytelling. A unique panel of guests will regale attendees with tales about shipwrecks in the Upper Great Lakes. The event will have experts available to answer questions about diving, classes on the latest technology, raffle prizes, and a silent auction.
Come experience something few people can—dive a shipwreck without getting wet! At the 3D Shipwrecks booth, you can wear VR (virtual reality) or Oculus glasses to explore one of ninety different shipwrecks, including some wrecks inaccessible to most because of their depth or remote location. This virtual experience immerses you, allowing you to explore the whole shipwreck from bow to stern. This incredibly unique opportunity combines technology and history into one unforgettable experience.
