GRAND RAPIDS
Sitting along the Grand River 25 miles east of Lake Michigan, Grand Rapids is the economic and cultural hub of west Michigan and one of the fastest growing cities in the Midwest. The ease of traveling here, reasonable costs, moderate climate, and close proximity to historic coastal Lake Michigan towns makes it popular reunion destination for groups of any size. When you’re not catching up in the hospitality room you can stay busy by visiting the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum where the President and his wife Betty are buried. Or take a day trip to nearby Muskegon to see the USS Silversides Submarine Museum, S.S. Milwaukee Clipper, and LST 393.
