Michigan Wi IN Illl Meeting

[GoldenLuv]

Two hours north, south, east, or west of Saginaw?

Lake Orion is south of Flint and that is where the Dog Park is that Amy mentioned. It has an open field area and a dock at the lake access for dogs to swim too.

A beach with dogs allowed sounds like fun!

I'd be game some weekend.

and they have pinic tables all you have to is clean the pooh up after your dog's lol

Oscoda! Oh no dear, you are actually north of Saginaw. Way north.

My sister used to live in Oscoda for a short time a couple years ago and my family spent summers at Tawas State Park and tubbing the Au Sable river. Do you live close to Lake Huron? Or near a more smaller inland lake (like Van Etten or Cedar)?

It's very gorgeous up there but we don't get up there that often because I live 3 and a half hours away. But I think my parents are camping at Tawas again this summer and I plan to head up there for a weekend. If I do, I'll keep in touch and maybe we can meet up!

Here's a photo of Kia (and me) in Lake Huron at Tawas State Park.


She just loves the lakes.

Hey Kimmy, if we come up for the memorial weekend bash in Ohio, we'll be staying in Holly, MI. Is there anywhere close to you or the park with the lake? If so, we'll have to go together!! (and anyone else who wants to, of course!)

Hey Kay Ann!

Holly, MI is not far from Lake Orion which is where the Bark Park is and where I host Kia's birthday parties.

It's a good size dog park with lake access. Unfortunately there is no beach but a single dock with ramps for the dogs to get in and out of the water.

My parents have a cottage near Grayling and Kalkaska tho 2 hours north of Saginaw might be a bit far for me in central ohio - doesn't sound like it's too far from their place.
Yup its over 2 hours from their place.

How far away is Holly, MI from me?? I will find out...

I really don't think I can go to Ohio for the Bash Soo I'd love to try to make it to the park!!

*edit* Only about an hour and 15 minutes!! Woohoo!!!! I'm totally game

[Kfamr]

Well - Kimmy, Ashley, anyone else wanna meet *someday* at the park Kimmy is talking about. I only say that one because it had the lake and we all know how much Kiki loves the water! Any other park is fine too, but I'd love one with a lake!


If anyone wants to, Kimmy could you please post a link to their website with address and all?

[ramanth]

I don't know the area that well so I don't know what another good park would be.

Kia and I simply adore the Bark Park though. We'd love to meet up there!

There isn't a specific street address to the Bark Park, it just gives the cross streets were the county park is located. There is a PDF file map though that can give you an idea of where to go.
