Algoma’s signature landmark along Lake Michigan will be celebrating its 25th anniversary next summer with fanfare. Friends of Crescent Beach is seeking to honor the people who help build the Crescent Beach Boardwalk while compiling a history and creating a revolving capital fund. The fund would be used to secure improvements and maintenance of the half-mile structure in the future. Boardwalk Project Committee member Sara Krouse says the goal is to keep improving the boardwalk for years to come while preserving its history.
The revolving capital fund was launched last month with a final fundraising goal of $15,000. Krouse says historical information can be submitted online through the Crescent Beach Boardwalk website or by calling the organization. You can find contact information to make donations or contributions below.
FOCB is asking anyone with photographs or additional information about boardwalk construction to share to email focb@lnrp.org or call 920-621-8838. To submit your name or the name of someone you know as a boardwalk volunteer or read the history of the project visit www.friendsofcrescentbeach.org/boardwalk.
