Days River Nature Trail Boardwalk Project receives Grant from The UPSF & Wildlife Fund

Mr. Charlie Becker and Mr. Glenn VandeWater

Mr. Charlie Becker, Board Member of the Upper Peninsula Sustainable Forest & Wildlife (UPSF & Wildlife) and Board Chair of the Community Foundation for Delta County (CFFDC) presents a check from the UPSF & Wildlife fund in the amount of $2,000.00 to Mr. Glenn VandeWater, Delta County Non-motorized Trails (DCNT) Board Project Foreman for the Days River Nature Trail Boardwalk Project.

“We are so grateful to the UPSF & Wildlife and the CFFDC for their generous grant donations to Days River Nature Trail Boardwalk project. Their donations allowed us to install 480 feet of boardwalk segments in low spots along the mile long loop trail just north of Kipling which allows residents and visitors to traverse its entirety without getting wet, enjoying views of the beautiful Days River and Little Bay De Noc. We also will update the current kiosk with new signage and a roof, “stated Mr. VandeWater.

“The UPSF & Wildlife collaborated with the Community Foundation for Delta County and the CFFDC awarded the Delta County Non-motorized Trails a grant in the amount of $3,000.00 to help with their project. Both grant committees supported the project which promotes and allows people of all ages the opportunity to get out and enjoy this beautiful U. P. nature trail,” commented Mr. Becker.
