Mission
The prairie club, founded in 1908, encourages the love of nature and participation in outdoor recreation by providing facilities and activities that allow members and guests the opportunity to experience the great outdoors. We foster a sense of community, the appreciation of beauty of nature and the importance of environmental conservation through the maintenance and programs of our two permanent camps, hazelhurst and spring grove.
Programs
3 programs
The hazelhurst camp has 94 cottages in addition to the three rental facilities. Spring grove has 26 sites in addition to the lodge rental facility. Club activities include monday morning coffee, an ice-cream social, a talent show, square dancing and jr. Clubhouse activities for children and teenagers.
The prairie club has two active groups who walk on various saturdays and sundays. The group often walks in one of the two prairie club camps. But sometimes, they venture out into one of the illinois forest preserves or other sites where nature is waiting to be discovered. They have become knowledgeable about the local flora and are always glad to share their stories and findings with other club members.
The prairie club is devoted to responsible stewardship of the grounds at camp hazelhurst. In 2024 various volunteer hours were devoted to land management and eradication of invasive plant species. In addition, the prairie club contributed 1,000 each to chikaming open lands col and the nippersink watershed association and 5,000 to the save lakeside woods land preservation project. Col acquires available real estate to prevent further commercial development of lands in southwestern michigan proximate to camp hazelhurst.
