The supervised groups using <br />the camping area will-participate in resource management and skill develop- <br />merit programs directly associated with the nature center facility. <br />The Long Lake segment would emphasize swimming, canoe rental and picnic <br />opportunities of different magnitude. The swimming beach .which would be <br />serviced by a multi-purpose refectory building (bath-house, refreshment <br />concession, canoe rental concession, toilets) will serve as the focal point <br />for several picnic areas. <br />The picnic areas would include: 1) a large group area (company picnics <br />~F <br />- pavilion, ball field, childrens' play area, field for portable concession <br />stands and amusements), 2) small group areas (scattered shelters, childrens' <br />play area, open play field), 3) family picnic areas (scattered individual <br />tables and grills), and. 4) blanket picnic areas (no formal facilities other <br />than grassy clearings). <br />A bicycle path would traverse the site and connect the various activity <br />areas. It would also connect with the proposed regional recreation bikeway <br />system on Long Lake Road and Old Highway 8. The bikeway corridor will also <br />provide for hiking and cross country skiing. <br />
