Copper Harbor Trails Spring Volunteer Workday #2
2022-05-22 10:00 - 14:00 | MI
Each spring the Copper Harbor Trails Club organizes a cleanup session with volunteers to clear the trails for the coming season. Snowstorms during the winter create downed branches and leaves that lay on the trails. This debris needs to be cleaned up before the trails open for the season.
This year’s workdays are planned for the following times:

Saturday, May 14th from 10 AM – 2 PM (rain/snow date for May 15th, same time)
Sunday, May 22 from 10 AM – 2 PM (no rain date, we’ll cancel if it’s a downpour or snow storm)

Volunteers meet at the Trails End Campground. Learn more about the spring cleanup: https://copperharbortrails.org/volunteer

Menu Tasting
2022-05-21 12:00 - 14:00 | KML Lodge, 14252 US Hwy 41, Copper Harbor, MI, 49918, United States
So you’ve secured a venue, and are starting to reach out to vendors. Flowers, music, cake, and the big one, catering. Maybe your venue takes care of your catering, or maybe you need to find an outside vendor. But in either case, a tasting option will probably be in your future.
What does that mean exactly? Tastings are offered in two common ways…group tastings or private tastings. In either option, one thing remains the same: your wedding menu tasting is for you to learn about the chef’s style and quality of cooking. It is NOT a free-for-all tasting of anything and everything you want from the menu. For private tastings, there will most likely be a set tasting menu, or you may have limited choices from different categories. Group tastings look a little different, with a buffet style set-up of dishes that Chef Wi wants to highlight.

The group tastings will be the choice the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge offers moving forward. Twice a year we will be offering group tastings free for couples who have booked weddings with us, and a cover fee for those still shopping around. This gives everyone a chance to try several different food options.
Remember to take notes on what you taste, and take pictures so you can distinguish between dishes. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and give feedback, for your best experience possible. And have fun!

Stargazing: Total Lunar Eclipse
2022-05-15 - 2022-05-16 | MI
In mid-may, the “Flower Moon” will enter the shadow of the Earth — late evening of May 15th and early morning of May 16th. This will cause a total lunar eclipse. The effect of the total eclipse can give the moon a reddish hue, known as a “Blood Moon”.

About the Workshop
The purpose of this workshop is to educate people on how to capture the beauty of the the night sky on camera. Topics being covered include equipment needed, camera settings, and the best locations for viewing. These workshops will start out with a brief presentation (in the conference room), and then we will go outside for hands-on experience — taking pictures of the night time sky (hopefully the milky way or the northern lights) around the Lodge property (weather depending). With the information garnered from the workshop, it will make stargazing more enjoyable.
