Friday Night Hike with Pastor Steve Enjoy a beautiful hike along the dunes and beach of Lake Michigan. On June 20, Pastor Steve will be leading a hike through the North Ottawa Dunes. Meet at North Beach Park (18775 N Shore Dr, Ferrysburg) at 7 p.m. to join this six mile hike, ending with a colorful sunset provided by our Creator. Bring: Comfortable walking shoes, water bottle, flashlight, bug spray.
Bike Hike With Pastor Ken - We are planning a family fun bike ride, various lengths of ride are available. On June 28, we will meet at the Clean Water Plant, just off Baldwin Street in J enison at 10 a.m. The Kent Trail starts there, it is a very nice ride through the woods alongside the Grand River, there are places to stop and explore the river, or just enjoy the ride. At the one mile mark we will have a break station, younger riders will likely take a break and head back (we will also have a sag vehicle to take riders back to the start if the return ride is too much). Riders who want a longer ride will continue along the river on Indian Mound Road, a one way, bike only route, no traffic to worry about on any of the ride. Riders may go as far as they like, three miles further along the ride there will be another break station. We are suggesting riders turnaround at this point (or sooner if they like). If you ride the whole route you will get in 8 miles, but you can make the route however long or short you like. The whole ride is shaded, scenic, quiet and safe! Sign up at the table today. If you have any questions please contact Ken Smith.
