Head South
Let’s be honest, the threat of snow has us all wishing we could head south for warmer weather. Good news! Allegiant now offers non-stop service to Sarasota from Grand Rapids.

Fun fact:
38
That is the number of parks/trails that the cities of Wyoming and Kentwood have combined. Wyoming maintains 21 which range from the Buck Creek Nature Trail to Lamar Park, home of the Wyoming’s Concerts in the Park. Kentwood has Jaycee Park, famous for its Disc Golf site, and Kelloggs Wood Park, which has a dog park. As the weather warms up, now is the time to enjoy these lovely assets of the cities.
