Wow! There's a lot going on locally in the next week or so.
Let's be musical first. Howell's Concerts at the Courthouse on Friday, July 10th, 7pm will feature the Rhythm Society Orchestra. This 15 piece group has won the Big Three Battle of the Bands 7 times, including this year. This is a free, family-oriented and pet-friendly event on the lawn of the Historic COunty Courthouse on Grand River in Downtown Howell. Bring your lawn chairs. Hosted by the Livingston Arts Council and the Historic Howell Opera House.
Switch over to Brighton on Sunday, July 12th at 7pm for the Kiwanis Gazebo Concert. This date will feature the Whatabouts & the Whoevers, a 60's girl group band. Pre-show at 6:30pm, FREE, food available, no dogs allowed. Main Street in Downtown Brighton at the Millpond. Note that Main Street parking is reserved for classic car parking only.
How about the eats, you ask? Glad you did! A Taste of Brighton is running Friday & Saturday, July 11-12, from 10am to 10pm. Street performers, family fun zone, arts & crafts, wine & beer gardens - and of course, GREAT FOOD! Voted one of Michigan's Best Festivals by Detroit A List. Crack the bank vault combo at the State Bank Safe Booth and win $10,000. Hey, it's worth a shot. More info here.
And don't forget the local Farmers' Markets. Brighton has its market on Saturdays from 8am-1pm in the Municipal Lot off First Street, by the Municipal Building. Hartland's is also Saturday, 9am-2pm at the Old Hartland HS, on M-59 just west of US-23.
Howell's Farmers' Market is Sunday, 9am-2pm, on State & Clinton Streets, next to the Historic Courthouse. And so is the Green Oak Farmers & Community Market, at 11299 Grand River, 48116 - at Alan Drive (between US-23 and Pleasant Valley Rd). They're open 10am-3pm.
Fowlerville has a Farmers Market, too. Wednesdays at the parking lot of the Village Office, 2pm-7pm.
If you can't find anything to do the weekend after the Holiday, it's not our fault.
