A gust of wind blows through your hair, a slight breeze brings you chills and you look out onto Lake Michigan to realize you’re sailing on a C420 sailboat with what used to be one of Marquette’s largest clubs.
Setting sail from the Milwaukee Yacht Club, the Marquette University Sailing Team (MUST) and the yacht club share a special part of their history because they tend to host several different regattas – an event that consists of racing yachts and sailboats.
To preserve this and create more awareness, MUST wanted to showcase its past. Therefore, they partnered with Marquette Raynor Memorial Libraries Special Collections and University Archives to express its heritage.
