Press Release: 19th Annual Labor Day Community Walk

Step into tradition this Labor Day! The White Lake Area Chamber & Visitors Bureau, together with the Cities of Montague and Whitehall, will host the 19th Annual Labor Day Community Walk on Monday, September 1, at 10 a.m.

Modeled after Michigan’s iconic Mackinac Bridge Walk, the White Lake Area event offers a closer-to-home way to celebrate this state tradition. Thanks to support from Gold Sponsor New Beginnings Church and Silver Sponsor Scheid Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, the community is invited to come together for a morning of fresh air and fitness.

The walk begins at the Montague Trail Head on Spring Street and follows the scenic Hart–Montague Bike Trail across the White River Bridge, ending at the Chamber Depot in Whitehall. Participants may continue along the path or return to the starting point. Healthy refreshments will be provided at the finish.

City officials, community leaders, and neighbors will join in the walk, highlighting the area’s commitment to active living and the many opportunities to enjoy its trails, parks, and waterways year-round.

For details, call the White Lake Area Chamber at 231-893-4585 or visit www.whitelake.org.
