Explore the Beauty

of Gladwin County through the Trail of Two Cities

A pathway that will not only unite Beaverton and Gladwin but also provide trail users with a gateway to the great outdoors. Gladwin County is rich in its abundance of natural resources. Rivers, lakes, forests, and wildlife are all an important part of what makes Gladwin County Michigan’s Backyard. The Trail of Two Cities makes all of this accessible for anyone who wishes to walk, run, bike, snowshoe, or crosscountry ski the Trail.

Running parallel to the Cedar River, the Trail is ADA-compliant and offers several recreational activities. The most recent addition includes a new kayak launch at the River Road Trailhead completed last summer by the Gladwin Conservation District with benches donated by the District and the Gladwin County Kiwanis Club.

Our natural resources in Gladwin County are something to protect and preserve. They have supported our community for generations and have allowed Gladwin County to grow into what it is today. The Trail of Two Cities has become a window into this natural world. It invites everyone to be a part of the outdoors in their own way and enjoy everything it has to offer.

Sometimes these resources need some assistance though. Along the Trail, Gladwin City Park provides an opportunity to see the impacts of invasive species and the harm they can do to the native ecosystem. Non-native oriental bittersweet vines can be observed wrapping around and strangling trees, and beneath the overtaken trees you will notice a dense layer of non-native woody shrubs. The

Campgrounds are a plenty in Gladwin County. Many offer fishing, canoeing, boating, water-skiing, swimming, playground facilities and bike rentals for the recreational trails.

The activities will delight your senses, body and soul. Events take place throughout the summer months at many of the campgrounds from fireworks, theatre and outdoor movies to youth programs, sporting events, social events, ice hockey and fitness activities. Come enjoy the great outdoors of Gladwin County!

This year, significant investments are going back into the land. Gladwin Conservation District and Central Michigan Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area are collaborating with local government and community members to help reduce the invasive plant population and establish native species to create a beautiful and functional ecosystem along the Trail.

This important work will help restore the Cedar River watershed ecosystem and provide a Michigan-native environment along the Trail of Two Cities. Users can look forward to a one-acre pollinator habitat, rustic trails with educational signage, a new pavilion with seating, and the regrowth of native Michigan woods and wildflowers to highlight the beauty that Gladwin County has to offer.

EDUCATION

STUFF Beaverton Schools

Gladwin Schools

IT’S ABOUT MORE THAN THE

Everybody thinks their school is special. In Beaverton, we know it. As hard as we try - and make no mistake, we try really, really hard - there are some unavoidable realities in public education in a rural setting. Other school districts will outspend us and out-recruit us. They might have the luxury to offer varsity water polo, or astronaut camp in actual outer space. That’s not us. That can’t be us.

Now it’s true that - boosted by a generous bond approved by our community in 2021 - we can claim:

• One-to-one technology for each and every student

• Classrooms equipped with new furniture and supercool learning devices

• A beautifully-revamped athletics complex

• Heightened safety and security of our buildings

• A new on-campus preschool program

• Early college opportunities for students who want to get the jump

• Robust skilled trades offerings

• Our brand-new girls’ soccer program

• And on, and on, and on That’s all good stuff. Important stuff. But we don’t stand out because of our stuff; we stand out because of our people. Our teachers, our staff and most importantly, our students. Our people embody the unstoppable community spirit that makes Beaverton Schools the unquestioned hub of an entire community that cares. It spills into our halls and flows through our classrooms with joyful, relentless abandon. There’s a hope-infused work ethic in our people - a grittiness and an eagerness to achieve that mixes high expectations with a proven road map to get students where they need to go.

The stuff is great. The stuff is cool. But without excellent people traveling on a true collaborative journey to succeed, it’s just stuff.

Our school rests in a small town with a huge heart and our best pitch to parents is this: If your kids show up ready to learn, ready to engage, ready to care, they’ll leave here ready for college, or a career, or both. If they show up knowing what they want out of life after high school, great. If not, that’s fine as well; like everything else we do around here, we’ll figure it out together.

The District has a plan to review each curriculum, implement changes and textbook upgrades over the next five years.

Starting in the 2024-25 school year the Jack Pine Conference will become a two-divisions, one champion conference. With this move the JPC hopes

to create a more competitive schedule for all member schools throughout their seasons while still having one conference champion, in each sport, to keep long standing connections within the conference strong. Specific names for the two divisions are yet to be determined as we hope to gather input from our new member schools. New schools to the conference include; Bullock Creek, Ogemaw Heights, Standish Sterling and St. Louis.

This realignment supports MyMichigan Health moving from a location-specific mindset to a regional and system focus. This structure helps MyMichigan leverage resources, while keeping care close to home and continuing to create better access to care for patients.

“We are committed to continually working to strengthen a better version of ourselves,” said Stover. “We remain dedicated to improving the health of those in the communities that we serve, leaving a positive impact on our patients, communities and employees.”

ARTS & CULTURE

An Abundance of Art

Here in the greater Gladwin County area and throughout the middle of the mitten, the love of the arts runs deep. One of the benefits of living and visiting here is the overwhelming arts and entertainment opportunities within close distance.

Why was Gladwin, named Gladwin?

Let’s start from the beginning. In the spring of 1932, there were “spear points of the “Clovis” people that were found in Sage Township. In association with the remains of long extinct Mammoth, indicates that a branch of this elephant hunting culture was indeed located in Gladwin County, Michigan at one time.” (The First Years, 1991, pg.6). Which brings us to a few decades later to the first people of Gladwin County, “were Native Americans of the Ojibway, Sauk, and Menominee tribes, these people lived by hunting, fishing, and collecting wild rice.” (MME). The lumbering era began thereafter with an abundance of pine and oak trees throughout the “1870’s and into the 1890’s with heights often exceeding 100 feet tall.” (MME)

The “first American settler was Marvel Secord, who settled on the Tittabawasee River in 1861, he packed up his family and moved to what is now known as Secord area of Gladwin County.” (MME). Gladwin was originally named

Cedar, in the year of “1883 the post office department changed the name of Cedar to Gladwin as there was another Cedar in Michigan” (History of Gladwin, Michigan. Pg.3). This is where Major Henry Gladwin comes in, “Gladwin was named after Major Henry Gladwin who was in command of the fort of Detroit during the memorable siege of Chief Pontiac” (History of Gladwin, Michigan, pg.1).

According to Rick Sigsby, author of Images of America, Gladwin County, he tells us that “Gladwin County is the Thermoforming capital of the world. One of the largest developers and manufacturers of plastic is the Dow Chemical Company. The basic principle of thermoforming is heating a plastic sheet, forming the plastic mold under pressure. Gaylord Brown took this simple concept and Gladwin County, specifically Beaverton was taken into the thermoforming capital of the world.” (Images of America Gladwin County, 2008).

Saint Anne Roman Catholic Church in Gladwin County had its beginning in 1961 when an 11-acre parcel of land at the corner of Dundas and M-30 was donated to the Saginaw Diocese. By April 21, 1963, the cornerstone for the church was laid. On June 16, 1963, the first mass was celebrated in St. Anne Church. In 1973 a social hall, classrooms, and office were added to the church. St. Anne, at the time, was a mission church connected to St. Philip Neri Parish in Coleman. In July 2013, both St. Anne and St. Philip Neri merged with St. Agnes Church in Sanford at a time when several Saginaw diocese parishes also merged. Our Lady of Grace Parish was formed to unite the three churches under the direction of Fr Daniel Fox, OFM, Cap as pastor.

St. Anne church has a strong history in supporting the local community. The church continues to make available the large parking lot for fire truck training by three area fire departments namely Billings, Beaverton, and Edenville townships and as a heliport for emergency medical helicopter evacuations and staging for Southern Gladwin, Northern Midland Counties. The hall and classrooms serve local groups as a place for monthly blood drives, AA meetings, as well as for the church commissions and committees. In addition, the parking lot was extensively used by FEMA following the historical 2020 flood that wreaked havoc on both Midland and Gladwin counties.

Weekly services are held at St. Anne on Wednesday mornings and Saturday evenings, and all are welcome.

See Our Lady of Grace website for weekly Mass schedules and much more at ourladyofgracemi.org. Also find us on Facebook.
