Lakeside Wooden Boat Show community helps a dream come true

July 16, 2014 by Galactic Growth Media

Guest Blogger: Allison Moon, Advancement Communications Intern

Bob Lewis’ interest in wooden boats began when he was a young boy. He cherishes childhood memories of spending time on his father’s 1957, 16 ft. Penn Yan wooden boat.

In 2010, Bob and his wife, Susan, were in the process of restoring a 1959, 16.5 ft. Lyman Runabout when they first attended the Lakeside Wooden Boat Show.

“We wanted to see the boats and talk with other boat enthusiasts about restoration and ask advice,” said Susan. “Everyone was very willing to share.”

With recommendations in mind and months of hard work, Bob and Susan launched their fully restored wooden boat for the first time in Lake Mosquito, in Ohio, on Sept. 5, 2010.

This Chautauqua season, Lakesiders will experience several upgrades made to the Williams Tennis Campus.
