2017 Corn Roast
Sunday, August 27th
New Time: 1:00 – 6:00 P.M.
Hudson Mills Metropark
8801 North Territorial, Dexter
River Grove Shelter
Don't miss our biggest event of the year — the Annual Corn roast on Sunday, August 27th from 1:00-6:00 p.m. It will be held at Hudson Mills Metropark in Dexter at the River Grove Shelter — the same location as last year. Lots of shade trees and a huge covered shelter with many picnic tables.
Entry fee for members and guests is $5 per person, which includes corn, hot dogs, and beverages. Please bring a dish to pass. Must be 21+ to attend. Grills and charcoal are also provided if you want to bring your own meat.
DAILY OR ANNUAL METRO PASS REQUIRED FOR HUDSON MILLS
The daily fee to enter Hudson Mills Metro Park is $10 per vehicle. You may want to consider carpooling. Remember that many of the AASC Sunday cross country ski, hiking, biking and kayaking events take place at metro parks…so now may be the time to consider purchasing an annual pass and help support our local parks. Annual passes are $35 for those age 61 or under, or $21 for age 62+.
When entering the park, watch for our signs to lead you to the two parking lots that surround the River Grove Shelter. But it's easy to find when you turn 'right" after the check in area, then either left into the Oak Meadows parking lot (paved path to shelter), or go straight to the River Grove lot (a short walk through the trees).
Volunteers Needed
If you are willing to help with the Corn Roast -- hospitality, membership, roasting corn, food area, set up, clean up, refreshments --- please email Joan Witte at a2skiclub@gmail.com. It takes a lot of volunteers to hold our biggest event of the year -- either 1/2 or 1 hour shifts. Please help!
