It's the first weekend of August and we have no shortage of events. We have festivals and pageants, food trucks, concerts, magic, movies, insane inflatables, and bung hammers...just to name a few!

It’s going to be a hot weekend. We have several activities, both inside and outside for you. There are musicals, concerts, baseball (you can even take your dog!), food, beach volleyball, bugs, the world’s largest dog wash, and of course Fireworks!

It’s the first weekend of Summer! There are a lot of events to help you get in some physical activity -- biking, walking, yoga, and running. There is also a record and CD show, events at the zoo, a water festival, a Harry Potter festival and Sunday brunch, along with some fundraisers.

Not only is it the Festival of the Arts in downtown Grand Rapids this weekend, but there are also a couple of concerts and plays, two different runs, a free dental clinic, a reptile & exotic pet show, and a chance to adopt a dog.

Tulip Time continues in Holland, we will have a gathering of Food Trucks in two different locations, there will be Baseball Games, The Symphony will perform, it’s the Fifth Third River Bank Run, there are tiny trees, two events at dog parks, and the biggest event -- Mother’s Day on Sunday.

It's cottages, basketball, prom dresses, maple syrup, Easter egg hunts (for kids and dogs), records & CDs, bunnies, bands, and fowling...all wrapped up into one weekend!

Along with some Halloween themed events, there are sporting events and concerts as well going on this weekend.

This weekend you have your choice of festivals, fear, fitness, fundraising, and much more!

It's the first official weekend of summer! We have a lot of concerts on the list this weekend. Also a couple of activities you could do with the dog. There is Running, Beer, BBQ, Bourbon, Water, Guns, Knives, and Baseball. I'd say there is something on the schedule for just about everybody!

Get out and enjoy the nice summer weather. We have carnivals and festivals, food, music, fishing and more!
