Mike had decisions about the Clementson wayside.
Sunday night 7 pm at Ambulance Garage Zippel Bay Project Meeting.
Reed won the 50/50.
Mike provided the program for this day. He updated us on the work done by the Friends of Zippel. The group's goal is to secure funding to enhance the park facilities so there is economic gain to the local economy and better quality of life for local residents.
The park received a grant to updgrade the harbor area. Electricity will be installed in some areas of the park.
Using the 1985 park plan as a guide the Friends of Zippel have created a plan for further improvements to the park by applying for a legacy funds grant.
Some of the improvements included in the plan are:
Upgrade of road to two lanes
Install Electricity into Anglers Campground and improve access for RV's. Install electric pump for water. A new host site will be installed.
Install five camper cabins
Create additional parking near harbor
Increase miles of trails within the park for skiing, hiking, biking, etc.
Increase the use of signage for education
Join the Chamber of Commerce
Construct a 40-60 unit campground near the harbor - with electricity and water.
Install board walk over march to beach
Place three boat access camping sites along beach and bay access
Protect the grave site near the harbor
Improve the site of the flowing well near beach - with benches
Brush mow the are in front of Lake View Campground
Internet access at park in areas
Make the park horse friendly with a trail system and parking options
Playground equipment at the beach
The Friends of Zippel would like to accomplish these things in the next five years. Plans have been shared with county board and chamber of commerce.
