winter cross country skiing and lunging: The sports lodge is the focal point for winter activities at Muskegon State Park. What began as a dream in 1983 became reality in 1990. The sports lodge story is typical of the long history of Muskegon area citizens being involved in supporting the park.
A few Muskegon people conceived the idea of building a luge and bobsled run that would serve as an Olympic training site. Energies were focused on the luge run. The idea grew and gained community support and political support from local legislators, who worked toward making state funding available for the construction and operation of the luge. By 1984, community support grew into a love affair with the luge, where countless hours of labor, construction materials, and equipment were donated to see the project completed.
During construction of the luge another idea surfaced; that of creating lighted cross-country ski trails. The project was underway almost as soon as the concept was presented.
