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

you a terrific experience, whether you race in the morning
or paddle in a leisurely fashion in the afternoon. The

at the west end of Fenton's Millpond. A limited number
of canoe rentals will be provided by Heavner Canoes

A tornado struck the Fenton-Holly
area on August 24. It left a jumble of trees in the

we were be able to hold the "Canoeing
