Get out and get moving this weekend…and maybe find some mushrooms too!

The weather is FINALLY getting warmer–so get the heck out of the house and enjoy it! You can hit up the National Morel Mushroom Festival in Boyne City, take a walking tour to learn Petoskey’s history, or hit the trail for a walk with your 4-legged friend! You can learn more about the elusive Morel Mushroom with a couple of weekend presentations at NCMC, or spend 24 hours on the track at the Grand Traverse County Civic Center!
