I am a board member of G.T.E.A.T (Grand River Environmental Action Team great-mi.org). One of your pamphlets about the event in June was passed around at our meeting this evening. Thought I would check you out. Nice web page! Looks like a fun idea, I am looking forward to hearing more about the project and hoping to come do some paddling. We have monthly outings, mostly on the Grand and Kalamazoo rivers. Some of us are interested in a road trip and the few photos look rather inviting! Reply to this
