Reeds Lake (East Grand Rapids) ramp closed all summer!

[Waterfoul]

Just saw a copy of the nice from the city.  They will be working on Lakeside from Wealthy north to around the corner starting April 17 (weather permitting) and are not scheduled to be done till August 17.  All new water and sewer service.  They will be leaving daytime access to Roses Restaurant next to the ramp and one way lanes on Lakeside for most of the summer, but as I read it... the ramp will basically be closed while they work on the east side of the road and MIGHT be open to use while they work on the west side of the road, but don't count on it.

So if you had plans to hit this great fishery this summer, you'll have to wait a year.  Bummer, love fishing there.  It's 10 minutes from work to boat wet in the evenings and only 20 minutes from home to boat wet Monday mornings!  Going to miss fishing there this year.

It also means we will have to re-locate our Junior Diabetes Research Foundation tournament this year.  Have not decided on a location yet but I'll post it up as soon as I know.

Noooooooooooooo. I live 5 miles away and run over few times a year. Especially when I only a couple of hours on a Saturday morning and I know no events are going on over there. I will have to keep an eye on it when we run over to downtown EGR for dinner this summer.
