Katherine V at work

... that the Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan is home to the Katherine V (pictured), believed to be the last remaining wooden fish tug built to harvest the freshwater fish of the American Great Lakes? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
- ALT1:... that the presence of Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan means that the Alpena micropolitan region is one of the smallest-population urban units in the world with its own working public planetarium?Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
- ALT2:... that chief industries of Alpena are quarrying and manufacturing of limestone, cement, and machinery to form concrete blocks, and the Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan salutes this humble industry?

This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. I am approving the original hook and ALT2, which are more interesting than ALT1. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:33, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
