Great event staged
I am a new Chocolay Township resident (still a Yooper green card holder). I watched my first Upper Peninsula 200 Sled Dog Championship from Lakenenland. I was so impressed by the spirit of community at the Lakenenland event. Seniors, families with their children, teens, couples, some of whom had traveled by snowmobile, were enjoying hot coffee, hot chocolate and camaraderie. Luminaries lit the walk from the parking lot and part of the race course. Benches and chairs surrounded the bonfires. It was a magical night. The time and care put into this free event was obvious. Lakenenland is truly a local treasure. All of my out of town guests have enjoyed the sculpture park. For me, it is a wonderful place to walk in all seasons, discovering new things about the sculptures. It was the first place I went by bike this summer. Thank you, Tom Lakenen, for your art and your generosity to the community.
