About
Put-in-Bay
Located
in the shallow western end of Lake Erie is a group of 20 or more
islands. One of these, Put-in-Bay (South Bass Island), served as a base
of operations for Oliver Hazard Perry. It was from the harbor called
Put-in-Bay that Perry sailed to defeat the British fleet under Robert
H. Barclay during the war of 1812.
Today
there is a 352-foot granite structure, known as the Perry's Victory and
International Peace Memorial, which commemorates not only a naval
battle but a peace which has lasted for more than 150 years. Put-in-Bay
is only a few miles away from the Canadian border.
Put-in-Bay
is a summer resort, and has been for over 100 years. Today, Put-in-Bay
is a vibrant tourist resort complete with taverns, gift shops, hotels,
boating, fishing, a national monument, caves and other island
attractions. There are activities and entertainment for all
ages. There are also nearly 500 residents that live in
