SUMMARY:Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes Annual Spring Training
DESCRIPTION:The Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes annual spring training is a once-a-year chance for volunteers to hear the latest park news from park staff and important safety tips from park safety experts. The 1 pm general training will be followed by 2 pm breakout sessions for Adopt-A-Trail\, Adopt-A-Beach\, Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail\, Preventative Search and Rescue\, and the Track Chair program.  \nFor those unable to attend\, we will be streaming and recording the general session. More information on this option will be available later.  \nFriends of Sleeping Bear Dunes volunteers logged over 11\,000 hours in 2023 through twelve Friends organized programs including Adopt-A-Beach\, Adopt-A-Trail\, and Adopt-A-River. Thanks to the efforts of dedicated Friends volunteers\, 2\,360 pounds of trash was collected by Adopt-A-Beach volunteers\, and 2\,905 hours were logged on the Sleeping Bear Dunes trails by volunteers keeping visitors safe and cleaning the park trails. The Preventive Search and Rescue team made over 30\,000 contacts with visitors making sure they are prepared for distance hikes within the park. Friends volunteers also maintain the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail; grooming it for cross-country skiing in the winter and blowing off debris\, fixing erosion\, and removing downed trees during the hiking and biking seasons.\nMore information on volunteer opportunities with the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes\, can be found at friendsofsleepingbear.org.

SUMMARY:Documentary Screening: YARN
DESCRIPTION:Knitting and crocheting\, long dismissed as home hobby and granny-craft\, are at the forefront of the current revolution in fiber arts. As part of its “Fiber Without Borders” exhibition\, the Glen Arbor Arts Center will host a screening of the 2016 documentary Yarn\, and audience talk-back discussion on September 19\, 7 pm at the Empire Township Hall\, 10088 W. Front St.\, Empire. Yarn is presented in collaboration with the Glen Lake Community Library. \nThe traditional crafts of crochet and knitting have become one of the hottest movements in modern art. Yarn looks at the new ways an old craft is transformed in the hands of several international practitioners. The film’s journey begins in Iceland and moves around the globe to sample the sometimes quirky\, always thought-provoking approaches to these needle arts. \nYarn is offered without charge. “Fiber Without Borders\,” a juried exhibition\, runs September 13 – November 7 at the GAAC\, 6031 S. Lake St.\, Glen Arbor. For more information go to GlenArborArt.org\, or\ncall 231/334-6112
