Bruce MacDonald<p>Excellent marine museum in Duluth faces staff shortage as peak boatwatching season arrives.</p><p>'"It's heartbreaking," said Kaylee Matuszak, who has worked at the museum since 2021 and was expecting to be promoted this year from a renewable term appointment to a permanent position, which would also mean a pay raise. Instead, Matuszak is slated to lose her job entirely when her term expires next month.</p><p>'The departure of Matuszak, who has been spotlighted by Visit Duluth, will be a particularly noticeable change for the visitor center. Often referred to locally by the tongue-in-cheek moniker "Duluth's Famous Kaylee," Matuszak has built a sizable social media following due in part to the images and information she shares about happenings at the Maritime Visitor Center, which does not have social media accounts of its own.'<br><a href="https://www.duluthnewstribune.com/news/local/lake-superior-maritime-visitor-center-to-face-peak-season-with-skeleton-crew" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">duluthnewstribune.com/news/loc</span><span class="invisible">al/lake-superior-maritime-visitor-center-to-face-peak-season-with-skeleton-crew</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/BoatWatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BoatWatching</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/LakeSuperior" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LakeSuperior</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
