February is Short, but Sweet, and Packed with Fun
Call us crazy, but we love February in Grand Rapids! Yes, we’re ready for spring, but there’s still plenty of fun to be had outside and opportunities for stay-cation fun abound.
February may be just four short weeks, but it packs in many opportunities for family fun all around the Grand Rapids area and West Michigan. From watching the opening ceremonies of the winter Olympic games or trying out some winter Olympic sports, to dances and spa nights, and even a chili crawl, perhaps February will be a month to try something completely new.
While some of these events are one time only, others are reoccurring, so make sure to check the daily calendar to perfectly plan your February fun!
