We bought the business in 2016 and have worked over the last nine years to make it into something special. We’ve enjoyed meeting everyone and it’s amazing to see how much changes from fall to spring, especially the little ones!

We have a large family and a lot has changed for us this year. As a result we need to focus our energies and time elsewhere. This was a bittersweet decision and we will continue to keep the shop open and provide the same quality products and services until the business sells.

If you are interested in purchasing the business please contact Tony at RE/MAX Properties.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) announced today that it will waive day use fees at its more than 2,600 USACE-operated recreation areas nationwide in observance of the USACE birthday, June 16, and Juneteenth National Independence Day, June 19.

The waiver covers fees for boat launch ramps and swimming beaches. The waiver does not apply to camping and camping-related services, or fees for specialized facilities (group picnic shelters) and events. Other agencies or vendors that manage recreation areas on USACE lands are encouraged, but not required, to offer the waiver in the areas that they manage.

Visitors are encouraged to check the current operational status of USACE recreation areas for any closures, restrictions or safety alerts prior to visiting. The Recreation Operational Status website can be found at https://corpslakes.erdc.dren.mil/visitors/status.cfm?state=Map. Click on any state for the current overall status of USACE recreation areas within the state and for the status of campgrounds, boat ramps and beaches owned and operated by USACE within those areas. The site is regularly updated with any status changes.

USACE also offers other fee-free days throughout the year to mark days of celebration and commemoration, including Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, National Public Lands Day and Veterans Day.

USACE is one of the leading federal providers of outdoor and water-based recreation, hosting millions of visits annually to its more than 400 lake and river projects. It’s estimated that 90% of the USACE-operated recreation areas are within 50 miles of metropolitan areas, offering diverse outdoor activities for all ages close to home.

To discover a USACE recreation site nearest you, please visit the USACE website at https://corpslakes.erdc.dren.mil/visitors/visitors.cfm or visit www.recreation.gov.
