Pavilion Project

June 9, 2023 update:

Our original site for the Lighthouse Pavilion has been approved by the Michigan DNR.  This is good news which will allow us to move forward with further planning.  The original architectural design for the pavilion, however, will have to be modified to meet DNR requirements. 

Please take a couple of minutes to view this short video about our proposed project.
