Memorial Day Weekend at Grand Lake

Good Morning!

No need to wax poetic this morning.

Be safe out there and keep your head on a swivel - both on land and on Grand.

Your complete weekend entertainment schedule is down below, plus some other helpful links as you navigate the first holiday weekend of the summer at the lake.

Let’s get to it!

Markets - The Grove Farmer’s Market happens every Saturday morning from 9 am to 2 pm on the community center lawn in Downtown Grove. And, the Saturday Market in Langley is back, but in the Flex Time parking lot, not The Artichoke, on Saturday mornings at 9.

Vacation Rentals - I’m guessing you are already covered for this weekend. But, planning another trip to the lake later this summer?
