From 5:00PM to 7:00PM

The Muskegon River Watershed Assembly Board of Directors invites you to attend our annual meeting at the Whitefish Lake Golf and Grill, 2241 Bass Lake Road in Pierson.

The one hour program will begin at 6:00 pm with hors d’oeurves and beverages followed by an update on several of the projects and programs that have kept us busy this year.

Prior to the meeting in Pierson, MRWA project manager Dixie Ward will take the lead on two project site visits to study examples of the restoration work we have done in the Tamarack Creek watershed. Please join us if you want to learn how our efforts in a relatively small
stream can have a positive impact on the watershed as a whole.

The first stop will be at Minnie Farmer Park in the Village of Howard City. Plan to arrive at 5:00 pm.

From there we will caravan to Artman Park a mile west of Howard City.

Following Dixie’s presentation at Artman Park, we will make the short drive down to Pierson.

Feel free to join us at any point on the journey. Stay for social time and prize drawings following the meeting.

Minnie Farmer Park is at the intersection of Orton and Hazel St.

Artman Park is just off US—131, at exit 118 on the corner of Army School Road and M-82.

Hope to see you there!

Julie Chamberlain, Executive Director
Muskegon River Watershed Assembly
