You’re invited to a community open house focused on the future of Herman Vogler Conservation Area. Community input is welcome on ideas for enhancing recreation, access to the river, wildlife viewing, trails and other nature-based amenities.

Restoration of the Trout River is moving forward with project partners Huron Pines, Barr Engineering Michigan LLC and the Presque Isle Conservation District. Project designs are 60% complete and partners are inviting input from the Presque Isle County community to help inform the project’s next phase. 

The session will provide attendees:

• An opportunity for direct input on potential features and uses for Herman Vogler Conservation Area

• Updates on the Trout River restoration project and preliminary designs

• Visual renderings of what the restored river could look like

• Information about the project timeline and decisions made to date

• Interaction with project partners from Huron Pines, Barr Engineering, and Presque Isle Conservation District

This event is an open-house format (come and go as you would like).

This event is family-friendly. Refreshments will be provided.

We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals to engage fully. It is a priority for Huron Pines to ensure that our communications and programming are available and accessible to everyone. Please contact maddie@huronpines.org if you have any questions about accessibility or believe barriers remain.

We recognize that accessibility is not always possible in every area of our work. Our efforts are ongoing. Through a commitment to continued learning and understanding, we will strengthen our awareness of the barriers and inequities that exist at the individual and community levels, in order to advance more equitable opportunities to experience the outdoors in our region.
