Photo Courtesy of Marge Beaver-Aerial Pilot and Past Guest of LakeFront Radio http://photography-plus.com/ an integral person to this great story. You are not going to believe this story! This is the perfect blend of What are the Odds, Twist Of Fate, Networking and a Ship that is Registered as a National Historic Landmark! It brings together 4 Businesses from 4 States across the 1. LakeFront Radio - www.lakefrontradio.com 2. HARO Help A Reporter Out - www.helpareporterout.com 3. Photography Plus - www.photography-plus.com 4. Navy Pier - www.navypier.com It all began with the Hosts of the LakeFront Radio Show, Yours Truly, Chuck & Mary Thompson celebrating their 25th Anniversary on July 23, 2008. They were married on Navy Pier in They thought how great it would be to interview Navy Pier during the week of their anniversary. WHAT ARE THE ODDS? 1. What are the odds that we would start our own radio show 25 years after we were married and do well enough to "Score" an interview with Navy Pier, the place where we were married. **Turns out Navy Pier thought this would make for an interesting show, with us having had some history on their Pier.** 2. Now comes the really interesting part. We interview Delores Robinson-Asst. PR Director for Navy Pier and we ask her if she knows what happened to the SS Clipper Ship. Last we knew it left the dock many years ago and we thought it was scrapped due to its age. It was an old Steamer Ship that was built BEFORE the TITANIC in the early 1900's. 3. She proceeds to tell us the history and story of "Our Wedding Ship" that blew us away. It was a museum before we were married on the ship. In 1983, just a few months after we were married, SHE was listed on the National Register of Historic Sites. 4. In 1990 SHE left Navy Pier, the same year we moved from 5. SHE was moved to We were very happy to hear that Our Ship survived and was alive and well in TWIST OF FATE ..... The story is far from over......When Delores told us the ship was now in Muskegon, we were shocked as we had interviewed Marge Beaver (the 73 year old aerial photographer) just a few weeks prior on our show and guess where she lives and works? So we contact Marge and ask her if by chance she knows The SS Clipper, now The Milwaukee Clipper. She not only knows the Clipper Ship she had taken photos of it while it was being refurbished....The Photo you see above. This is quite a shock to us both, we never thought we would see Our Wedding Ship Again! NETWORKING & MEDIA So this could be the end of a truly great story where all the "STARS" align so to speak, BUT it is not over yet! You might wonder.....If we are a Radio Show in Atlanta, how did we hook up with an aerial photographer in Muskegon, Michigan of all places....Enter HARO..Help A Reporter Out. Peter Shankman a well known PR and Networking Business man and Author started this website out in November, now almost 20,000 members strong. This is a FREE service for the MEDIA, PR Agencies and regular FOLK across the World. It is very simple, you sign up, if you are the Media, you enter a short description of the type of publication you represent and the story you are writing or reporting about and the type of sources you need. That is it. As a member you get 3 emails a day from Peter (deadlines make this necessary) and then you read the emails and decide if you or your client or your friend, neighbor, whomever is right for the story. You contact the media source and you are off and running "Get Sourced, Get Quoted, Get Famous" is there motto. We here at LakeFront Radio use this source since we are the "media" and this is where we were able to hook up with Marge. If it were not for HARO, we would never have met Marge and of course we would have never been able to get photos of our "Wedding Ship"...The Milwaukee Clipper. We would have known from Navy Pier where SHE was, but to have someone who can supply us with an awesome photo and print of our Ship just makes our 25th Anniversary that much more special and unbelievable! BUT the story is not quite over.....HARO..... is in the news because they are now becoming serious rivals of PROFNET, who has a similar service, but who charges sources a pretty penny to be a member. So this is going to be an ongoing story as PROFNET's PROFIT.....will be shrinking soon with Peters growing membership. By the way some of his clients include: CNN News, USA Today, New York Times, Atlanta Journal Constitution, Major TV News Stations, etc. OKAY, the story is NOW over, except to add icing to our "Wedding Cake" Mary & Chuck were just written up in their local Gainesville Times Newspaper about their Radio Show....so all is good with the world. See story here: http://www.gainesvilletimes.com/news/article/7440/ Thank you Marge, Delores and Peter for your wonderful part in this story! You will always be a part of our lives from this point forward in a very special way. I think this story is one that should be shared with the PRESS. Why? Because it includes a Happy Ending, Great Businesses, Wonderful People, Networking that WORKS and that wonderful entrepreneurial spirit that makes this Country Great! God Bless You All and God Bless America!

We were so very sorry to hear that Tim Russert died this afternoon of a heart attack at the age of 58. What a shock!
We had just finished interviewing "The Boating Guy" Keith Ammons, with www.discoverboating.com when we heard the sad and shocking news. We pray for his family, son & father and the Man himself. He was a one of a kind reporter. You trusted what he said, he got to the truth, but had a decent humanitarian side to him. There is no replacing Tim Russert, God Bless you Tim, you will be sorely missed by millions! Category: Blog -- posted at: 5:17 PM Comments[2] |

Sun, 18 May 2008  Aqualand held a Pre-Season Party last night 3/17/08 for all of its Customers. The weather was beautiful and the sunset as you can see was breathtaking! There was a great rock and roll band, a Beer Truck & Grapes and Hops Bar & Bistro out of Flowery Branch had a wine tasting event. The party was well attended and many brought their folding chairs to sit and listen to the band.
The dockside grill was open and cooking their famous Dockside burgers, which your hosts enjoyed after the festivities. They were as awesome as we remembered them. We got together with some old friends of ours from ZD dock, it had been many years since we saw them, so the night was filled with old stories on the dock. Len Jernigan was hosting the event and was able to mingle with the majority of the customers to say hi and introduce himself, since he joined Aqualand just this past fall as their manager. We walked some of the docks and could see that several had been extended with new ramps so that most of the docks were in good deep water. One comment that our friend Larry Sosebee made was that this drought has actually improved the relationship amongst all boaters. In the past there was what you might call a rivalry between House Boaters and Sailors, but now they respect each others space and those around them, primarily because the are all in the "same boat" - pun intended with the low water issues. Larry said, he has seen a significant drop in fast racing boats across the water, people are being safe and driving slower and those who are not familiar with the lake are staying off of it, especially at night. We did see a wide range of age groups, lifestyles and personalities at the party and the one constant was they were all having FUN and very excited about the start of the new year at Aqualand. It was a long winter for us all and people are anxious to enjoy the water, relax and have fun! Don't forget to check out our interview with Len on our site www.lakefrontradio.com which was held on May 16, 2008. Have a great week everyone and be safe on the Lake! p.s. We highly recommend that you also listen to our DNR interview all about Boating Safety. Your Hosts-Chuck & Mary Thompson

Fri, 16 May 2008 NEWS RELEASE... The Corps of Engineers announced yesterday that the new Georgia Gun Bill signed into Law by the Governor does not apply to Corps Managed Lakes and Lands in Georgia. Corps Managed Property is regulated by the Code of Federal Regulations. Regulations governing possession of firearms specify that possession of loaded firearms, ammunition or loaded projectile firing devices is prohibited unless in the possession of federal, state or local law enforcement officers or when being used in compliance with hunting regulations. Consequently state carry permits issued to NON law enforcement officers are NOT valid on Corps Property. The Corps regulation may be veiwed at: http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_01/36cfr327_01.html Category: Blog -- posted at: 8:08 AM Comments[2] |
