he state has approved about $1.8 million in recreation grants to improve parks and trails around Michigan.<\/p>\n

The Department of Natural Resources announced those grant recipients earlier this week. They include $150,000 to restore the Grove Holman building in Owosso, $136,700 for improvements to Riverside Park in Nashville, and $127,500 for a warming hut at the Physicians Park ice rink and splash pad in Grand Blanc.<\/p>\n

The department got 59 grant applications overall, totaling $6.5 million, but only 18 of them were funded.<\/p>\n

The money comes from the DNR\u2019s recreation passport program. More than a third of registered vehicles in Michigan have those passports, and 10% of those sales fund outdoor recreation projects like these.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"he state has approved about $1.8 million in recreation grants to improve parks and trails around Michigan.
