NEW MEMBERS New member, Jacob Herzog. I am a single man living in Royal Oak area. I am in the process of building a lake house in my hometown of Fenton to be closer to my parents and hunting areas. Also, to get away from the Detroit traffic and all the city slickers. I am the second oldest of 5 Herzog Children. I am 30 years old. My oldest brother Tom is 32, my baby sister Emma is 21. We are all very close. Obviously, any Herzog members, Parents, Grandparents, Great grandparents Aunts and uncles. My Great Grandfather Tom Herzog sold the original lots to CCR and helped start the ranch. Also, Sikina’s, Vincent’s, Cywinski’s are all lifelong family friends! Also, Schaible’s and Schulz’s! I am an Army Veteran. My father Tom Herzog brought me here in 1989 prior to my first birthday! My dad is 62 years old and his parents, my grandparents Don and Annette, brought him here 62 years ago prior to his first birthday. I hope to one day do the same with my future kids! I like the laid-back family atmosphere and all the BEAUTIFUL land. The CCR Wave! My hobbies include looking for ducks and geese, then hunting them. Boating. Snowmobiling. Drinking Manhattans with my Grandma Herzog! I work at Quicken Loans in Detroit. I help people buy homes! I applied at CCR because I love hunting, the outdoors, snowmobiling. Also, to spend more time with my best friend and Father Tom Herzog. Along with my Aunts Uncles and Cousins! I figure I’ve mooched off benefits of being a guest of the ranch for PLENTY long enough and it is time to become a member! 11 New members, the Vincents. John, Krysta and Mabel Vincent are very excited to be new members of Canada Creek Ranch. John is an HVAC technician in the Great Lakes Bay region and Krysta is a reference librarian at Delta College. They have been married since 2017 and have recently moved back to Midland, where they both grew up, and bought a home after living in Colorado and Metro Detroit. Mabel, who just turned 2, has been coming to the Ranch since she was born. In fact, she is the 5th generation of Vincent family to enjoy CCR. John has been coming to the Ranch his entire life. He introduced Krysta to CCR and they always knew that they wanted to raise their kids with the same freedom and adventure that is enjoyed at the Ranch. The Vincent family enjoys using the same cabin that has been in the family since 1937. They also like spending time in the campground. John and Krysta are both outdoor enthusiasts. They enjoy hunting, hiking, and spending time outdoors as a family. They look forward to sharing that love with their daughter. Mabel enjoys rides out back and is a fearless swimmer at the beach. She is counting down the days until she can climb up the raft and jump off herself. Their dog, Piper, loves walks around Lake Geneva. The Vincent family loves spending time with their many family and friends that are also members, including John’s Grandfather, Harold Vincent; Father, Douglas Vincent; and brother, Scott Vincent, along with many more extended family and lifelong friends.
