Keepers of the Shiawassee

Keepers of the Shiawassee

A “grassroots” organization looking to promote, clean, and preserve the Shiawassee River.

We are a volunteer group that is beginning to develop the river as a paddling trail by organizing clean ups, installation of signage, and kayak/canoe launches. We have grown out of the efforts started by Headwaters Trails, Inc in Holly, MI. Our goal is to develop a 100 mile paddling trail from Holly to the Shiawassee Flats.
