What’s Happening in Northern Michigan: Avalanche Bay

While it might not feel like it yet, spring break is almost here. In this week’s What’s Happening in Northern Michigan, we’re giving you some ideas on what do.

Spring into Activity

Traverse City is helping families get outside and stay active during spring break this year with their “Spring into Activity” mobile passport. Sign up to get your free passport, then head out and check into places like Mission Point Lighthouse or the Sleeping Bear Dunes Climb for stamps. You’ll have a fun and active spring break, and you’ll earn a free slice of pie from the visitors center after you collect five stamps.

Inland Seas Education Association

If you’re looking for a fun day trip during your Spring Break, stop by the Inland Seas Education Association in Suttons Bay to visit their free Education Center. Raise a sail, watch plankton videos, view bugs under the microscope, crawl through the Benthos Tunnel, view the Zebra Mussel Bike, and lots more educational fun.

Avalanche Bay 

If you’re looking to stay close to home but still fit in a getaway, head to Boyne Mountain Resort just South of Petoskey for a day or two! If you’re lucky you’ll hit just the right weather for some early spring skiing or fat tire biking, or pack your swimsuit to splash and play all day at Avalanche Bay: their indoor waterpark. They’ve got tons of fun activities going on year-round to make for a memorable spring break getaway.
