The Canton of Rimsholt invites you to

Border War XXV

June 13, 14 & 15, 2008

Bertha Brock Park
2311 W. Bluewater Highway
Ionia, MI

Join us for our annual skirmish with our neighbors to the east, the Barony of Northwoods.

Site opens at noon on Friday, June 13 and closes at noon Sunday, June 15. Please read the camping information concerning when certain areas of the park are open for set up.

All campers must be off site by noon on Sunday. We appreciate your cooperation.

Once again this year we are limiting the parking at the hunting lodge by the battle field. This allows everyone the opportunity to unload and leaves the area free for any emergency vehicles needing access to the fighting area. Your cooperation is appreciated.

Do Not Dig Firepits! The park ranger will assess fines to anyone digging a fire pit.

Fires can be made in the provided fire rings or in raised portable fire braziers.

The Canton of Rimsholt asks our guests for Border War to help us keep Bertha Brock park clean and clean up your campsite before you leave. Extra trash bags are available at troll for the barrels if needed, as well as in selected barrels near the ball diamond and battlefield.

While Bertha Brock Park enjoys the company of your dog, it's your responsibility to keep it leashed at all times and clean up after it. Disruptive animals will be asked to leave the park, which may necessitate their owners leaving the park as well.
