🚨Rec Hall receives significant facility upgrade during 78th resorting season
CURTIS, MI — In mid-July, during the busiest part of the resorting season, the Rec Hall received one of the biggest facility upgrades in modern resort history. New barn doors were added to the building to make it easier for resorters to come and go.
“This was a long-planned upgrade that’s time had finally come,” said Jay Bitely, owner and operator of Birch Shores Resort.
A project that was started in June by the infamous Marc Fox — and subsequently abandoned — was picked back up by Oscar, Paul, and David on painting duty. AnnJo served as project supervisor.
“The installation of barn doors was a hard, grueling task but was well executed and carried out by our talented crew,” said AnnJo, who supervised the installation from the comfort of a side by side.
Resorters will now be able to slide the barn doors open to access the rec hall, a major improvement from the accordion style old doors.
As we usher in this new era of ease of entry, please pause for 30 seconds as we remember the old doors ushered out of their long and faithful service to make this new day possible.
