Cabin
Fever Relievers
March is the month of shows. Sport
Shows, Builder's Shows, Boat Shows, plus
the ever popular lineup of
entertainment, music, art, and theater
performances. If cabin fever
 has
you jonesing for some time out of the
house, now is that time. You can buy a
boat, learn to fish from a professional,
or find a contractor during the day,
then be entertained in the evening and
make an overnight of it.
Early Spring Lodging Rates are the
best deals of the year. See the
March Calendar of Events for a
complete listing of dates and
activities.
If you are hanging on to winter until
the very end (and we appreciate that
about you), you'll be glad to know the
cross-country ski and snowmobile trails
are still in decent shape. While other
areas of the state have received more
snow, fewer riders on the trails here
have kept the local trails in good
riding (and gliding) condition. For the
latest updates, be sure to check our
Trail Grooming Report page for more
information.
Get While
the Getting is Good
We've all heard this pearl of wisdom
before. But did you ever think of it in
the context of your summer vacation?
Grand Rapids area resorts are already
reporting strong bookings for the peak
summer season. If your vacation time at
the lake is important to you, we suggest
booking now before your favorite resort
is filled and
 your
co-workers abscond the prime vacation
weeks on the company schedule. Grand
Rapids offers
quality resorts, family attractions,
and more than enough outdoor recreation
to easily fill up a week-long stay and
keep your entire family entertained.
Another pearl of wisdom, "A last-minute
bargain isn't really a bargain if it
wasn't what you wanted."
Grand
Rapids is Singing the BLUES!
 Blues Fest that is. The Boundary Water
Blues Festival is moving to Grand Rapids
for its 10th Anniversary event. Blues
Fest will take place over four days from
July 30 - August 2 at the Itasca County
Fairgrounds in Grand Rapids. This year's
event promises the caliber of blues
performers that have made this music
festival a perennial favorite, as well
as some special guest appearances,
sideline entertainment, and after-hours
events with shuttle bus service. Get
your tickets in advance through
rangeblues.com, and be sure to book
your lodging early because a sold-out
town is a guarantee. |
