Bay County has over 37 miles of Great Lakes coast bordering the Saginaw Bay. Yet, where do our residents go when they want to see the waves and water of our shoreline?
Where do you take visitors who want to see the Great Lakes where you live?
There are extensive protected areas along the Saginaw Bay for wildlife, including Wigwam Bay, Nayanguing Point, Quanicassee Wildlife Area, Wildfowl Bay, etc. But public shoreline access areas for people to use and families to enjoy are difficult to find. Even visual access points where the Saginaw Bay can be easily seen are limited.
Bay County is partnering with the DNR to explore what waterfront amenities the public would use and would want to see developed at the Bay City State Recreation Area (BCSRA) to improve access to the bay front. We aren't talking about massive development. However we want to explore recreational features that would draw people to visit the bay.
Please come to the Public Input Workshop October 21st 4:00-6:30 pm at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Bay City Michigan and offer ideas and input on what you'd like to see to create better access to our own Great Lakes Bay shoreline. The public is invited.

At 65 years old,I remember well the beautiful sand shoreline and endless vistas of clean fresh water waves breaking on shore.There my parents would bring all of us 14 children to play and love in every season the magnificent Saginaw Bay, of which our 2 historic cities were named.We all went via North Henry St to Bay City State Park.This is the shore now,filled with muck,filth,and tall invasive plants ruining the views.Restoring any section of the shore without repairing this true entrance to our communities is foolish and a waste. Look at the center and Bring Back Our Beautiful Bay.
