About us
J&M EXCURSIONS LLC was established in summer of 2020 at the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic, as a way for the no w married Mr. and Mrs. Smith, to get out and experience the great outdoors. Starting with just one kayak and one canoe, the couple set out to explore and appreciate their neighborhood of Miller in the city of Gary. Jeff and McKenya were bombarded with questions about their kayaking on the Marquette Lagoon and decided that the inquiry merited more investigation which became J & M Excursions, a whole business.
​
J & M EXCURSIONS LLC is the proud sponsors of TEDxGary, OKTOBERFEST and the BISHOP BOSWELL PLAYFEST because we believe that these events bring people together which builds bridges of understanding and places a positive spotlight on Gary as a community that values the environment, the arts and culture.
