What's New

4/7/08 - The first clean-up of the woody debris that has fallen into the Shiawassee over the winter will take place Sunday April 13th. We will probably tackle a couple of large trees just west of Fish Lake Road--the biggest obstacle found on reconnaisance. Call Doug Lanyk for details at 248-634-4551. The river temperature will be around 40 degrees so volunteers should bring waders and dress appropriately. We won't work too long and we will have hot drinks on hand. Your help is very much appreciated because there are already people out paddling.

3/1/08 - The Holly to Fenton Canoe Races are coming, Sunday May 18. Start your canoe or kayak paddling this year at the event on the Shiawassee River in Holly. The river will be cleared in advance by volunteers, return transportation is provided and our volunteers will do our best to provide you a terrific experience, whether you race in the morning or paddle in a leisurely fashion in the afternoon. The river twists and turns for seven miles from the start location in WaterWorks Park in Holly to the finish location at the west end of Fenton's Millpond. A limited number of canoe rentals will be provided by Heavner Canoes of Milford. Come out for more fun...locally! Click here for a registration form.

10/26/07 - Headwaters Trails has moved its office to Rose Township. Thanks to the Rose Township Board for offering the basement of its old township hall at 204 Franklin Street for our use. Hours will be by appointment. Call 248-388-1313. Our mailing address remains the same: P.O. Box 33, Holly, MI 48442.

A tornado struck the Fenton-Holly area on August 24. It left a jumble of trees in the Shiawassee River. Thanks to the efforts of volunteers, we were be able to hold the "Canoeing in Color" on October 6. For more details see "What's New."

8/27/07 - Annual "Ride The Rose" event was a Success on August 26th (more)
