Glen Arbor gears up for Fourth of July
Glen Arbor’s celebration of Uncle Sam’s 235th birthday kicks off with a 4 p.m. performance of patriotic music by the Northport Community Band on Saturday, July 2, at the Glen Arbor Athletic Club.
On Sunday, July 3, don’t miss the Glen Lake Fire & Rescue Association’s annual pancake breakfast, from 8 a.m. to noon at the Glen Arbor Township Hall.
Rise early on Monday, July 4, and head over to Burdickville for the traditional Flag Raising ceremony at Old Settler’s Park at 10 a.m. Patriotic Bike Decorating commences at 10:30 a.m. at the Glen Arbor Art Association. The Fourth of July parade lines up in Glen Haven, a mile west of Glen Arbor, and usually departs at noon.
The McCahills, who own On the Narrow’s Marina and will soon open the Dairy Bar south of the Glen Lake narrows, are bringing back the Boat Parade this year. The parade will begin at 4 p.m. in front of the Glen Lake Yacht Club and follow the west coast of Big Glen Lake until it passes through the Narrows Bridge.
