Below is a press release for our 16th Annual Shipwrecks Symposium. Please note that it is being held on Saturday March 13th this years as with Easter falling on our normal weekend we decided to shift to the closest date which did not conflict with other shows.

We have an excellant line up this year and I'm sure you'll recognize most of the names on the list. We are still looking for several short (5 minutes or less) shipwreck related programs to be as fillers throughout the day. We are also looking for door prizes and our beg letters have just been sent out. Even if you don't get one, please feel free to donate.

Please spread the word about the show and if you would like to donate a door prize let me know. Look forward to seeing you there. Ian
