Ride Specifics Mileage: Day 1 we ride that beaut of a route to the Indiana Dunes. This is the biggest day. About 75 miles and camp at the national park. Day 2 we roll out around noon and slow roll our way about 45 miles up to Weko Beach Campground in Bridgman, MI. Day 3 is a chill day. Relax on the beach all day or ride into town for some beers or hop on the 25ish mile loop that an OOFD will be leading. Or even go adventure off on your own through the gorgeous country roads of Michigan beer and wine country. So much good beer, food, wine, and beach to explore. The campground is a 4 minute walk to a stellar beach and the epic dunes of Warren are just a few minute walk down the beach. Day 4 we ride about 40 miles up to Van Buren State Park which is just south of Grand Haven, MI. Day 5 we ride about 60 miles to South Bend, IN and hop the South Shore Train back to the city. A UHaul will transport bikes back to Chicago as the South Bend stop cannot take bikes this year due to track construction. Support: Sag van that will carry one school sized backpack per rider Lodging: Thursday - Dunewood Campground - Indiana Dunes, IN Friday/Saturday - Weko Beach Campground - Bridgeman, MI Sunday - Van Buren State Park - Van Buren, MI Pace: 12-15mph Trail/Route: Paved road with minimal gravel incorporated and possible snow. Age: Adult Ride (21+) Trip Description What's Included: 4 nights/5 days of bike camping (It is possible to join us a day late and leave a day early if needed) This ride is an ecstatic celebration of Lake Michigan and all that it coast has to offer. This is going down in the heart of the summer and there will be plenty of chances to go swimming in our gem of a lake. Hence the name, the SWMI, "swimmy", ride. Roll with some of the best guides OOFD has to offer as we finally break into our 4th state, Michigan! Learn about the ecology of the lake and the lake shore while also exploring some of its hidden gems and excellent local spots. We understand pulling off a 5 day ride might be tough, so you can join us Thursday night or Friday morning at the IN Dunes. The south shore train is super convenient for this. Also, if you need to dip out on Sunday, the Amtrak and South Shore can get ya back to the city no problem. But the price for the trip is all the same, so you should take advantage of this extended summertime adventure if you can. For a more in depth breakdown of what each day looks like, check this out.

If you have been thinking about ways to take action and make a positive impact lately, the Community Involvement Committee has the perfect opportunity for you. Join us in volunteering to engage with students at a Middle School Law Camp hosted by Just the Beginning, a pipeline organization that seeks to nurture interest in the law among young people from socioeconomic, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds underrepresented in the legal profession. ChiWIP volunteers will work with students on the Intellectual Property Creation Lab portion of the camp, which is arranged by LegallyBlack, an organization dedicated to bridging the gap between IP law and communities of color. Following a workshop on the fundamentals of IP, students will work in small groups with ChiWIP volunteers to design their own original “creation.” Each team will develop key brand elements and identify the types of IP protection their creation would need, gaining a real-world understanding of how IP law protects creativity and innovation. We can’t wait to get students excited about IP law and plant the seed that a career in IP is possible for them. We hope you will join us! Volunteers will need to arrive no later than 1:30pm and the IP Creation Lab will wrap up at 4:00pm. Information Source: ChiWIP | eventbrite
