Join us each Saturday in June for Freighter Golf, a special activity just for kids as part of Capt. Scupper’s Kid’s Club, supported by the Darrell & Jean Fox Fund.
This drop-in mini golf experience transforms the Great Lakes into a playful course filled with educational fun. Each hole is inspired by the unique features and landmarks of the five Great Lakes—from iconic bridges and famous lighthouses to scenic islands and natural wonders.
As kids putt their way through the course, they’ll discover fascinating facts about the geography of the lakes—making learning an adventure! Participants will also earn their first Captain Scupper Sticker as part of their Kid’s Club journey.
Perfect for families and young explorers, Freighter Golf is a fun and interactive way to experience one of North America’s most iconic region.
This project was funded in part by a grant from the Helping Hens Fund of the Greater Toledo Community Foundation.
