Friday, June 6 - Snack and Paddle

Greetings Friends;
Summer is here! We will be venturing out on some new activities. Our first group activity of the summer will take place on Firday, June 6. We will meet in the visitor’s parking lot of the Proud Lake Campground (entrance is on Glengary Road about a mile east of Wixom Road). Please bring your favorite snack to share. We’ll start at 7:00pm w/ some tailgating in the parking lot. Next we’ll walk to the campground beach and join Allan Heavner who has graciously invited us to his canoe/kayak demonstration and trial. Boats and life jackets will be provided or you may bring your own if you prefer. If time and interest permits, we will take a hike to the “old organizational campground” which is located just east of the modern campground (bring your insect repellant). This is the area that the Park staff is propsing to convert to a walk-in rustic campground. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me via email. This activity is free (you will need a valid motor vehicle permit on your vehicle) and open to your entire family and friends. Looking forward to seeing you Friday!
