Please join HWPI at The Dexter Cider Mill located in beautiful Dexter, sitting perched on top of the Huron River @ 3685 Central St. and right next to the B2B. Come and enjoy their delicious treats, sip on some of their wood pressed fresh cider made on premise, take a stroll around their 132 year old family owned mill and soak in the view.
We would love for you to experience a perfect Fall afternoon at the Cider Mill. Stop by and say hello to HWPI on Sunday, Sept. 30th...12-4pm to learn more about the B2B! 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍩🍩🍩
Save Sunday-October 7th for the 2018 Brewery 2 Brewery Ride with the Friends of the Border to Border Trail! Check in at 10am...ride starts at 11am!
This free ride (registration required) will start at the Arbor Brewing Company Microbrewery in Ypsilanti (720 Norris Street), take the B2B Trail to Arbor Brewing Company Brewpub in Ann Arbor for a lunch stop, then return to Ypsilanti. The total distance round-trip will be 20 miles long with hills at either end (riders should be comfortable riding 15-20 miles prior to the ride). The ride will take most people somewhere between 45 and 75 minutes. Solo riders must be 12 years of age but child-trailers are ok.

HWPI Volunteer Spotlight: Susie Paisley
Susie Paisley, a friend of Karen McKeachie, wants to do whatever she can to help complete the B2B and honor Karen’s legacy. Susie is an avid runner, all-around athlete, compassionate soul, and a whiz with spreadsheets and numbers. She has turned her CFO skills and a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude toward supporting HWPI and the B2B by serving on the HWPI Executive Committee as Treasurer. She is also a regular volunteer at HWPI events.
When talking with Susie about why she loves to be involved with HWPI, she shared multiple times that people involved in the project have energized her and made her so proud to be a part of the mission. THANK YOU, Susie, and all of our volunteers and supporters, who generously give their time, passion, expertise, and money so that our communities will have this amazing resource for years to come.
Stay tuned for future Volunteer Spotlights. There are many talented people involved in this project!
