It will be a pretty busy weekend in Brighton. The Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce is holding the Smokin' Jazz and Barbecue Blues Fest is this weekend from 5pm to midnight Friday September 9th and again noon to midnight on Saturday the 10th in the Municipal Parking Lot next to the District Court. Great line up of entertainers, including Motor City blues icon(ess) Thornetta Davis. And don't forget the great food!
On Saturday at 11am, the centerpiece of the new 9-11 Memorial will be delivered to the memorial site at the Brighton Area Fire Department, 615 W. Grand River, 48116. Supporters are encouraging area residents to line Grand River while holding American flags of any size.
Sunday, September 11th, the memorial will be dedicated at 9am. Grand River will be closed to traffic from 8:15am to 11:00 am from Main Street to Cross Street. There will be a free shuttle running from Meijer's at Cross and Grand River. A very large crowd is expected to attend.
Why not have some fun Friday and Saturday at the Smokin' Jazz and Blues Fest, then attend the 9-11 Memorial dedication on Sunday? Brighton has a vibrant downtown with some interesting shops and restaurants.
