Great Holiday, more fun coming!
What a great weekend we just had with all the visitors coming to Grand Lake to enjoy all the activities, the great weather and all the great businesses that provided services to those visitors. We know it is busy when several locations run out of Ice at the same time. Many locations have reported records sales for this Holiday compared to other Memorial Day weekends. This is a great start to what could be a grand summer season. Even the Gas prices went down!!!
