Liberty by the Lake

2/8/2012

I gotta love a town that has a statue based on THE Statue of Liberty in its main lakefront park by the marina.

I try to schedule my trips to Rogers City to coincide with the meetings of the various groups I am involved with.  This week there is a lot going on.  I went to four events today.

First, a 7:30 a.m. meeting of the CDA, Community Development Authority, concerned with the enhancement of the business district.

Then,  breakfast of the Wacky Weeders, the volunteers who help the city's park district during spring, summer and fall plant, weed and mulch the seven city parks, the grounds of the 40 Mile Point Lighthouse and the Presque Isle Historical Museum. During the winter months the group still meets every Wednesday morning to go walking and have breakfast afterwards at Karsten's.

At lunch I attended the meeting of my Zonta chapter. During the winter we only meet once a month because some of the members go to warmer climates for a few months.

Mid-afternoon the City Council's ad hoc Grow Committee met. I am a member of that committee and as a result of the meeting I will be working on press releases to help promote the city.
