MUSKEGON COUNTY, MI – Access to Muskegon State Park from the east will be blocked for the first part of this summer due to the closure of a portion of Memorial Drive.
Beginning Monday, April 26, Memorial Drive will be closed from Weber Road to west of Peterson Road for water main work, according to Steve Fink, public works engineer for Muskegon County.
Traffic headed to Muskegon State Park on Memorial will be detoured via Weber to Fenner Road and then west to Scenic Drive.
While there’s not a huge number of events this weekend, the ones that are happening are huge. Like the Gator Spring Bike Rally and the Eustis Spring Bike Rally & Music Festival. Those two combined are sure to make bikers and non-bikers alike enjoy the weekend.
Mount Dora is also hosting their annual blueberry festival. So for all those blueberry lovers out there, there’s going to be a pie eating contest, blueberry beer and wine, and local blueberry farms selling their blueberries.
There’s plenty more to fill up your weekend. Here’s what’s on tap:
