The Si!vertones (Liz Sivertson and John Gruber), played at the Welcome Picnic for the Gunflint Green Up at Gunflint Lodge on Friday night. They had a great time playing under the Big Top  for more than 200 people.

On Saturday, more than 300 people will go to designated spots in the Ham Lake burn area on the Gunflint Trail, pick up packets of pine seedlings and plant them. A Thank You Dinner  is that evening and Trail’s End Band will play for a dance. The Ham Lake Run/Walk and other activities are set for Sunday.
