OK, it's not exactly the Woodward Dream Cruise. (For those non-Michiganders out there, the Dream Cruise is a huge car party in Detroit's north suburbs. So large that it's actually the world's largest one day automotive event. Click the link for more info)
But the Howell Melon Festival is in its 51st year and is quite a party, all the same. A wide range of events include the Melon Run with both a 1 Mile, a5K and a 10K, and other funs things like melon dash and melon roll and tot trots.
Get a taste of melon ice cream, take a steam locomotive ride, a river boat ride (on Thompson Lake), or perhaps a trolley tour. Try a taste of melon wine, tour the Howell Historical Museum. Add a Fine Art show, sidewalk sales and some interesting activities like a watermelon seed spitting contest, a bubble gum bubble-blowing contest and you’ll find something to do in Howell this weekend. The entire downtown area is the location.
If you’re planning to visit, check the schedule and parking maps first. This is a BIG weekend in Howell, and we want you to have a blast! And if you decide to look for a house in Genoa Township or one of the other nearby areas while you're here, give me a call!
