March 2019

Elk Rapids Almanac: March 2019
 
 March - The month of March was named for the Roman god of war, Mars. Traditionally this was the time of year to resume military campaigns that had been interrupted by winter. -The Old Farmers Almanac, founded in 1792.

March - Warmer days and still cold nights means it is time to tap our Maple trees, including right here in Maple Bay Preserve.  Everyone is able to learn about the maple sugaring process at Maple Bay on March 23, starting 
at 1:00pm. -Paul Moyer.  Further details at GTRLC.org
