This Weekend at Grand Lake
Shaping up to be a beautiful Spring weekend
Good Morning!
It sounds like this warm Thursday morning is going to bring a little rain later today and overnight, but then it’s shaping up to be a beautiful weekend. Sweet!
Might have to go catch some crappie.
Hey - guess what?
The new Bernice Bridge is open!
It’s still a construction zone as they work on taking out the old bridge and such, but… no more stop light!
And there was much rejoicing!
With that, here’s what else you need to know for this weekend at Grand Lake":

Supplies for the various projects will be available on site, although volunteers should bring their gloves and wear comfortable work clothes.
