There's so many things to love about the great city of Grandville, MI - Where do I start?  We have a lot of beautiful parks, one of my favorites being Millennium Park which actually is located in Grandville, Walker and Wyoming because of it's enormous size.  We have an award winning Blue Ribbon High School - Grandville High; we are centrally located to several bigger cities - Holland, Grand Haven on Lake Michigan and moments from Grand Rapids, we have easy access to all of the highways including the new M-6 and we have a fantastic newer mall - Rivertown Crossings which also has several wonderful restaurants nearby. 

     Grandville is a city of just under 17,000 so it's definitely a small town with a big city feel.  We have the Kent Bike Trails running through here along with other bike trails.  I enjoy walking to our downtown area and checking out the Farmer's Market or the Library.  The town was originally settled in 1832, but actually can be traced back to the Ottawa Indians (we are located in Kent County, but some of Grandville is in Ottawa County).  It became a village in 1887 and then incorporated into a city in 1933. 

     My favorite event here is the Fourth of July.  We really have one of the best fireworks display around and a nice parade - the whole community comes together.  We can either walk to a nearby church (which there are several) or to the cemetary to watch the fireworks.   We usually have other family and friends joining us because it's so much fun!  We also have the Metro Car Cruise every Labor Day.  It starts on 28th Street in Grandville and runs several miles down to the other end in Grand Rapids.  The event is now a two day affair since it's gotten so big.  You can see some amazing classic cars, trucks and other vehicles.
