PORT HURON, Mich. (AP) - U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow is scheduled to speak during the dedication of the Island Loop National Water Trail in Michigan’s Thumb region.
The ceremony will be held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday at Bakers Field Park in Port Huron.
Stabenow’s office says U.S. Interior officials announced last fall that St. Clair County’s 10.2-mile-long Island Loop Water Trail had been selected as the first National Water Trail in the state. There are only 14 such trails in the United States.
The trail traverses the Black River, Black River Canal, Lake Huron and the St. Clair River.
The National Water Trails System is part of the National Park Service.
