Volunteer weekend started today. We had a crew moving some chairs and untying ropes holding down our tents. Then for dinner a pot luck was organized with people from Lansing and Jackson UMC groups joining forces along with a few others to enjoy a campfire and great fellowship.

Come join us this weekend. We still have space available and the weather is looking great here in Pentwater, MIchigan. The leaves are starting to change as well. 🍂
