Grand Rivers Celebrates the Season

From Kim Kraemer in Grand Rivers -  

Each year at Christmas I become a tourist in my own town as I take advantage of all of the holiday happenings. My favorite event is the Lighting Ceremony at Patti's.  This year the ceremony was held on November 9, and we enjoyed music by Eternal Vision and the spectacular lights of Patti's. I wish to recognize the Tullar Family and Patti's Settlement for the hard work and talent that goes into creating the Holiday Festival of Lights. Patti's makes the Holidays in Grand Rivers so special. Thank you to the Tullar Family for providing such a great evening.    Lights and enjoy shopping, shows and family time in Grand Rivers, you should make your plans now.  Find more information on our Holiday events and packages by visiting www.grandrivers.com
