Fun Fest

Festivals are a super way to get out of the house and have a little fun without spending much (if any) money. Luckily, West Michigan has an incredible number of festivals taking place all through the summer and fall. Here is a pretty good list on GRNow’s website, but I am putting all of those that I find most relevant into the calendar. Check them out there – they have links with more information in each of the events. Right now: the Grand Haven Coast Guard Festival! Awesomeness. Starting next week are both the Coopersville Summerfest (in Coopersville) and the Kent County Youth Fair (in Lowell). They have some AMAZING opportunities. For example, at the Coopersville Summerfest you will be able to see tractor show events like a tractor pull and powder puff games, the Del Shannon Car Show and Car Cruise, or join a FREE archery tournament! If you are willing to spend a little bit of money you could enter the horseshoe tournament for $5 an individual or enter as a team for $10. The Kent County Youth Fair is kind of blowing my mind with all of the things to do. A few of the coolest are free Swing Dancing lessons by the Grand Rapids Original Swing Society on Tuesday night, Free ORV and Boating Safety Classes for youths, all sorts of animal exhibits, and tons of free music and dancing. Go to the websites for more info.


These last few days of the Coast Guard Festival include Free Ship Tours, the Grand Parade on Saturday, and a Fireworks Extravaganza! I’ve heard it is pretty spectacular. Go and have fun!!!
