Members,
What a great winter! Here on Mackinac we have great snow and great crossing ice! Temperatures are cold, but we don't go out unless we are in full snowmobile gear! And cross country skiing is such a great workout, you stay warm regardless of the temperature. But the temperatures are going up...and spring is around the corner. (It should be an incredibly beautiful break up lining the shores with all this ice.)
It's time to start planning your summer visit to the Club. I have been taking reservations all winter and it is looking to be another great summer. You may email me at this address or call the club phone 906-847-3363 to make reservations. Check our Members Only section for information on availability.
I am editing the directory so if you have any last minute changes, email me.
Also, I am sending in another order of Brick Pavers in the next month for spring placement. If you haven't placed an order for one, contact me.
Looking forward to another great season.
