Together, the Walloon Lake Trust and Conservancy and Top of Michigan Mountain Bike Association (TOMMBA) plan to purchase property that will become a Conservancy preserve in the Boyne School Forest corridor. The 40-acre parcel situated directly between Boyne School Forest land and City of Boyne City land plays a vital role in protection of habitat and forest in the Walloon Lake Watershed. It also presents an opportunity to build trail connections from the existing Boyne School Forest trails through to the City of Boyne City property. Everyone wishing to learn more and get involved with the project is invited to the campaign kick-off party on Wednesday, December 12th from 6pm - 8pm at the Walloon Lake Trust and Conservancy office in the Village of Walloon Lake. The kick-off party promises libations, snacks and a short presentation. RSVPs to Heather Huffstutler, Director of Conservation Programs at heather@walloon.org are encouraged and appreciated.
