CUUB Camping returns 

 
Can you identify where you would see this?

Pick out your camping spot.  

Hello CUUBies and friends,

This years CUUB Camping will be from July 30th - August 2nd.  It is located at Mike and Sue Kelly's property in Millersburg, MI. We have acres of woods, trails, and a small lake for swimming.  This will be rustic camping but we do have enough property for some RVs or small motor homes, etc.  Please join us for a fun filled and meaningful weekend of camping.  We will set up the weekend before so consider joining us for a bonus weekend of fun and setup.  If you help out on the setup your camping fee will be waived, plus you will get to select your campsite in advance. 😀⛺🚣🏊

Because we don't know what is going to happen with COVID 19 we reserve the right to cancel this invitation up to the last minute.
Please download the attached form and return it with the fee of $75 if you plan on coming.  After July 1 the fee is $100.
