Over the past few weeks Eight Forty-Eight traveled throughout the Great Lakes Basin thanks to the series, Front and Center. As it wraps up the first leg of our journey, Eight Forty-Eight invited listeners to share their connection to the waters and ways of life in the Great Lakes region.
The Great Lakes shape many lives - from the fish people eat to the money they make. During this Front and Center call-in special, Eight Forty-Eight asks listeners to share their most powerful bond with Lake Michigan: Is it recreational? Cultural? Economic? And how should Midwesterners maintain this shared resource?
