FentonSays.com is a fan of the Spicer Orchards Farm Market & Cider Mill found east on Clyde Road from US-23 in Fenton, Michigan. They have free hay rides to the orchard to pick apples every weekend during the fall. During the week you can drive your car right up to the trees. And of course they have plenty of fresh produce, doughnuts, cider and other fresh foods.

Tommy vlogs from Tyrone Valley Conference Center. Summer is time for camping in Michigan, and the Fenton area is no exception. Children love going off to camp with the family, or what we used to call “sleep away camp,” or even day camp away from the parents. There are many choices for parents and children to enjoy religious or secular camps and camp grounds in the Fenton area. We are glad that Tommy Swindol has decided to share a little bit about his experience. Enjoy!
Lazy summer days, feet dangling in the still cool waters of the placid lake. That’s what Michigan living is all about. We are truly blessed to be able to experience all four seasons. Even the bitter cold of winter makes us appreciate days like today so much the more. The video that we would like to share with you today captures the simple pleasures of enjoying a nice, warm day feeding the ducks on Lake Fenton.
Lake Fenton is the premier lake in Fenton, Michigan. It’s open to the public with a pay-to-launch public access facility. A handful of years ago, due to commercial development, a popular area of the lake for people to “tie up” and have a good time that went by the nickname “Pig Beach” was closed down. Now it appears that the peninsula on the south end of the lake by the nickname of “Eagle Point” is the new hot hang out spot.
In 2007, FentonSays captured a view of a fairly busy weekend out at Eagle Point. One reader suggested we take another look at it on the 4th of July. We did exactly that (see, we read what our readers have to say, and we respond!).
NOTE: The 2007 FentonSays.com video collection is now available for purchase online! The DVD has much sharper quality of video than can be seen on YouTube or on our site. Get your commemorative thirty-five video segments in the first ever video of its kind.

Every year at the Fenton 4th of July Freedom Festival just after the parade, the Fenton Rotary holds the Rubber Ducky Regatta. This annual fundraiser for the community civic group has remained a fun highlight of Fenton’s annual celebration. See the rubber duckies start their dash to the cash with their race down the river by first falling over the Fenton millpond waterfall.
