MUDDY CREEK TWP — Cathy Seman enjoyed the cruise she took on the Preston’s Pearl in September, and she thought a ride on the boat would be a great gift to her father.

On Sunday, June 18, Jim Cunningham celebrated Father’s Day, as well as his 75th birthday, with his daughters and wife by taking a special Father’s Day cruise around Lake Arthur at Moraine State Park — his first ride on the boat.

“That’s why we’re all out here, for my birthday and Father’s Day,” said Cunningham, of New Castle. “It’s a nice boat, I’m surprised how big it is.”

Preston’s Pearl had its annual Father’s Day cruise Sunday morning, which was a sold-out trip attended by numerous dads and their families.

Jackie Nicklas, first mate for Preston's Pearl, said the annual cruise is always popular, and always sells out.
