Rotary Club of Cadillac White Pine Ride 2024

Ride the scenic north end of the White Pine Trail with Rotary Club of Cadillac & friends on Saturday, September 21. Support the trail and Rotary while having a great time riding with family and friends. We suggest you time your ride departure to return between 1-3 p.m. for a picnic, to be served at the downtown market. If ride day the weather is inclement, we encourage riders to find another time to ride later on Saturday or on Sunday. And still plan to join us for the picnic with live entertainment to be held at the Cadillac Commons Market regardless of the weather.
