🌿 HOLLY TOWNSHIP BEACH TEMPORARY CLOSURE NOTICE 🌿

Please be advised that Holly Township Beach will be closed on Thursday, June 25, and Friday, June 26 while aquatic w**d treatment is being performed in Bush Lake.

This temporary closure is necessary to allow the treatment to work safely and effectively. Aquatic w**d management helps improve water quality, supports a healthier lake ecosystem, and provides a better recreational experience for everyone throughout the summer.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we complete this important maintenance. The beach is expected to reopen once the treatment period has concluded and it is safe to do so.

Thank you for helping us keep Holly Township Beach clean, safe, and enjoyable for all!

PFAS Community Meeting – Important Information for Holly Residents

PFAS has been identified in Bush Lake, and there have been occasions when the Holly Township Beach has closed due to PFAS foam conditions.

The Michigan PFAS Action Response Team (MPART) will be hosting a public meeting to provide updates on PFAS investigations, groundwater testing results, and potential health impacts.

While this is not a Holly Township Parks and Recreation event, it is highly relevant to our community and to those who use our parks and beach.

Residents are encouraged to attend or participate online to stay informed and ask questions.

Meeting details can be found in the flyer below.
