Catch a free ride to the shore (and everywhere in between)! 🚌

Summer is wrapping up, which means only a few weekends remain for the city’s Free Beach Shuttle! Service runs through Labor Day weekend (Sept 6th).

Planning to stop by the Muskegon Lake Celebration this Saturday? The shuttle stops directly at Grand Trunk Boat Launch, making it a convenient, hassle-free way to catch the tail end of the daytime event, which runs 9 AM–2 PM (shuttle service begins at 12 PM). Learn more about the event at mkgcity.com/muskegonlakecelebrate.

Beyond the celebration, the shuttle makes it easy to enjoy the weekend without worrying about parking:

🍔 Grab lunch or drinks in Downtown or Lakeside

🛍️ Shop local shops along the route

🌲 Explore the trails through Kruse Park

🌊 Take in the shoreline views, rain or shine

(Note: Saturday shuttle hours are 12 PM to 8 PM, making it ideal for afternoon travel!)

The route connects Jackson Hill through Downtown, Lakeside, lakefront city parks, and along the shoreline. Find street parking near any designated stop, hop on board, and ride for free.

Plan your trip, view all stops, and check the route map at mkgcity.com/beachshuttle.

Decades of work. A historic milestone. One huge community celebration.

Muskegon Lake has officially been delisted as an Area of Concern! While our work to protect the water never stops, this Saturday, August 15th, we’re pausing to celebrate how far we’ve come. And we want our whole city and all our neighbors to join us in marking this incredible victory!

Whether you’re coming for free family fun during the day or traveling with us into the 80s at the evening event, here is what’s happening this Saturday:

☀️ Daytime Celebration: Sun, Fun & A Lake Restored
📍 Location: Grand Trunk Boat Launch

Bring the family out for a waterfront fun run/walk, hands-on activities, kids' games, local food trucks, kayak demos, fishing derby, educational video screenings, and tours of the historic S.S. Milwaukee Clipper!

🪩 Evening Party: Back to the Lake — An 80s Celebration
📍 Location: Aboard the S.S. Milwaukee Clippe

When the journey to restore Muskegon Lake began in the 1980s, few could have imagined the success we’re celebrating today. We’re throwing it back to the decade that started it all! Join us for heavy appetizers, a cash bar, DJ, and dancing on the water. Break out those neon, leg warmers, and big hair, — costumes are strongly encouraged (though not mandatory)!

August 4th Kids Vote Election Results! 🗳️✨

The ballots are counted, and the results are final: Beachwood Park has been voted as the fan favorite! 🌳🏆

This was our second Kids Vote election, and we were thrilled to see so many future voters participate once again! Kids Vote is our ongoing initiative that helps local youth learn how elections work while making their voices count.

This election was all about favorite parks, but the fun doesn't stop here. We’ll be continuing Kids Vote at the November 3rd General Election with a brand-new, exciting topic for kids to decide on! 🎨🍕🚀

Thank you to all our young participants and their families for making our second election such a success!
