Status Update - Ice Storm

As a result of damage caused by the March 30 ice storm, many Township parks, trails and green spaces remain closed while assessments and cleanup are ongoing. For safety reasons, residents are asked to avoid closed parks and trails and follow all posted signage and barriers. 

Whether you enjoy a short peaceful stroll through farmland or cottage county or a longer trail on asphalt roads, the Township has a trail for you. Our trails range from easy to moderate and are a free, fun and healthy way for residents and visitors to get out and explore the Township.
