Apple Blossom Run
It is hard to imagine an outdoor race when we are in the midst of these cold days. However, the more moderate temperatures of Spring are almost here.
The 3d Annual Apple Blossom run will take place Saturday, April 19th, 2008 Macomb Orchard Trail. All age groups are invited to participate. The 4.5 mile race will occur on the southern portion of the trail while the 1 mile fun run for children will start at the Glacier Club Golf Course and head south down the trail.

Trail Development
July 2006 will mark the two-year anniversary of
the completion of the first six miles of the Macomb
Orchard Trail. The first section has been a great
success and a wonderful new addition to the many
recreational opportunities in Macomb County and
surrounding area. In October 2005, a new pocket
park was opened along the trail, at West Road
in Washington Township, thanks to the generous
donation of Ms. Janice Ross. The park currently
includes a picnic pavilion, benches and a parking
lot with a bathroom facility.
The
planning and design of the second and third phases
of the Macomb Orchard Trail will be commencing
this fall. The Macomb Orchard Trail Commission
is currently working with Wade Trim Inc. to develop
the engineering drawings for the development of
these seventeen miles of trail and the renovation
of seven historic bridges. Actual construction
of the project is scheduled to begin in late summer
of 2006 and completed in early spring of 2007.
We
invite everyone to get out and enjoy the trail!
