Ribbon cutting ceremonies celebrated the completion of major improvement projects at Covert Park Beach & Campground and Covert Community Park in Covert Township, Michigan. Funded by a $475,000 Michigan Spark Grant from the Department of Natural Resources, improvements to the Covert Park Beach & Campground include complete replacement of a 600-foot boardwalk and stairway through Lake Michigan dunes, stabilized pathways, safety railing, benches and eco-friendly composite decking material to enhance durability and accessibility.
A $293,000 revitalization project at Covert Park partially funded by a $146,462 grant from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation Revitalization and Placemaking Program includes enhancements like new playground equipment, a pavilion, walkways, landscaping, lighting and more.
“These projects represent a significant investment in the quality of life, environmental stewardship, and recreational access for our residents and visitors,” said Covert Township Supervisor Daywi Cook. “We’re excited to celebrate with the community and all those who helped make these projects possible.”
