The Sister Bay Waterfront Museum! Preserving and Protecting Sister Bay’s Waterfront History
Our Mission
The mission of the Sister Bay Marina Club is to support the Sister Bay Waterfront Museum and Sister Bay Marina History. The club is the funding mechanism for the future Waterfront Museum, which will preserve and display SHADOW, our historic 26 foot Chris Craft Sister Bay runabout that was delivered to Sister Bay in 1929, and other artifacts of Sister Bay's history.
The future Sister Bay Waterfront Museum will be located at the Boathouse on the Sister Bay Marina.
“SHADOW PROJECT”
The Shadow Preservation Project was established by the Sister Bay Historical Society in accord with the Society’s mission: “to encourage, foster, and participate in the documentation, preservation, dissemination and renovation of historic information, artifacts, and sites in Sister Bay, Wisconsin”. We can't wait to showcase this boat in the Sister Bay Waterfront Museum!
