Michigan’s Other Great Lakes blog – All is quiet…but not for long!

ROSCOMMON CO.–What a difference a week makes! From my office on M55 in Houghton Lake the traffic is down, down, down. Of course, school began in many areas this week and it is the middle of the week. Should take me about half the time to run to the bank and post office today than it does during the summer.

But, wait….September weekends are still going to be full of activity.

I can hear the music now…the East Bay Music Fest from 1-8 p.m. Sept 10 will have you tapping your toes and humming along. Come down to Trestle Park on Houghton Lake this Saturday.

And if you prefer the sound of marching bands, the next weekend enjoy the Fireman’s Memorial Parade in Roscommon, as well as all other festivities of the weekend event.

Cannons will be booming this weekend too at the Roscommon Co. Civil War encampment & Cannon Firing at the Roscommon Fireman’s Training Grounds.

Nationally recognized painters, authors and musicians are converging on Wellington Farm Park this weekend to celebrate the end of summer.

The music of Carole King and the “You’ve Got a Friend” concert will fill the theater at Kirtland College Center of Performing Arts on Saturday evening.

Details and links to the events can be found on the event calendar.

Come enjoy the end of summer music, fun and festivities, and then stick around for the quiet as you enjoy the sounds of nature hiking through the beautiful fall foliage of colorful Roscommon County.
