GLEN ARBOR — Safety. Access. Those words were oft-repeated in the Glen Arbor business district and at the Dune Climb on grand opening day of the first five paved miles of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail.
"I think it's a wonderful opportunity for the community," said Georgia Gietzen, who owns Northwood Hardware there with husband Jeff and business partners Dee and Steve Schucker. "It will give safe access to the National Park for families and children and people in wheelchairs. It's really an inclusive project."
