Conservation Pledge
I pledge to protect and conserve the natural resources of the planet
and promise to promote education so we may become caretakers
of our air, water, forests, land and wildlife.
Club Flower
The Iris...honoring our founders who, in 1931, planted yellow iris along the banks of a new road opened in Pere Marquette Township. Remnants of these flowers can still be seen every year on Iris Road. In Greek mythology, Iris was the messenger of the gods between heaven and earth, and the personification of the Rainbow. Tall, slender and scepter-like, the iris has been associated with royalty for centuries.
