  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • Military to Maritime Challenges and Opportunities to Connect Veterans, Maritime Employers and Educators
    Military to Maritime Challenges and Opportunities to Connect Veterans, Maritime Employers and Educators Military to Maritime Connecting Veterans to the Civilian Maritime Industry Each year more than a quarter million servicemembers transition out of the military. These men and women have proven work experience and valuable skills, yet the majority of transitioning Veterans often struggle to seamlessly move into a civilian occupation. At the same time the vast majority of organizations have no Veteran-specific recruiting plan to tap into this enormous field of talent, leaving potential future corporate leaders unengaged. There are few populations more ideally educated and trained for work in the maritime and transportation industry than Veterans. However Veterans are often unaware of the opportunities for employment in the industry and/or how to best position themselves for a career that maximizes their previous military experience. Likewise, maritime and transportation industry employers are challenged not only by a lack of connection to soon-to-be separating servicemembers to make them aware of career opportunities but also strategies and resources to ensure successful, long-term employment. Employers may also be unprepared for some of the unique challenges their newly-hired Veterans face when entering the civilian workforce, particularly those who separated from the military after recently returning from deployment. Those challenges can include: navigating the Veterans benefit and post-military support system utilizing Veteran benefits for post-military education and workforce training concern about discrimination in the workplace service-related mental or physical health concerns A majority of SMART Center partner employers across all three primary sectors of the maritime and transportation industry: vessel operations, shipbuilding and repair, and port operations and marine logistics, are eager to hire Veterans.
