Spring Cleaning on the Bike Path!

Venture Crew 1 scoured the the North Central (Gaylord to Mackinaw) Bike Trail between Gaylord & Vanderbilt on May 17th and hauled out wagon loads of litter. This was a great community service project and the trail looks terrific! You all should be proud of your efforts!

Participants included Christopher, Rianne, Caila, Devin, Rachel, Nick & Bobby. And a big thanks to the adults who pitched in - Mr & Mrs Coale, Mr. Cromell and Nick & Rachel's grandparents. Mr. Marsh also attended and wishes his great personal sacrifice (missing the Red Wings playoff game on TV) to be acknowledged.

The Crew enjoyed pizza & hot wings afterwards and went "on-line" to design our new Class B shirts (see picture!) Kudos to the Crew for coming up with this outstanding community service project. Let's make it an annual one!

Awesome New Class B Shirt Design! Shirts should be in around June 5th!

Crew 1 members had a great time at the Venture Leaderships Skills Course in Charlevoix last weekend! The skills worked on will really help our crew go & grow! Crew 11 was a great host and their leaders put on a terrific program with lots of fun thrown in. We are planning a joint outing / get-together with Crew 11 sometime soon so we can have another opportunity to party with those friendly folks.

PS - Here's a tip from Rianne - always bring an extra pair of pants!
