Are you ready for another Sizzling Summer of Fun, Sun & Relaxation in Boyne Country?

The sun is out, the birds are chirping and the snow is nowhere to be seen. That means only one thing: Possibilities.You see, summer in Boyne Country is more than just another season in just another neck of the woods. Our people have a tendency to dance in the streets; and the thunder you hear rolling in off the water may be followed by cheers of jubilation.We celebrate art and tractors, fast cars and mushrooms ... and strolling our streets can be so much more than a walk.Whether you’re a bachelor up with your buddies for a fishing trip or a family in

town to celebrate one of our many festi-vals, the Boyne area has the luxury and economy lodging, world-renowned at-tractions, signature events, great golfing and natural beauty to make your stay a memorable one.Nestled along the southeast portion of Lake Charlevoix, Boyne City and the surrounding communities of Boyne Falls and Walloon Lake are replete with lush lakes, rustic camping opportunities, artisans, fine dining and crisp, clean wa-ter for boating and swimming.So, are you ready for possibilities this summer? Are you ready for Boyne Country?

Randy Howard also stated, “We have high 80s low 90s attending, last fall we had 110 racers pres-ent.”

Aside from muscle cars you will also find diesel trucks and snow-mobiles competing for best times and new records.You can get in for free if you are under 12, and for adults it’s $10. For $15 you can obtain a pit pass, which will get you down to see the cars only feet away.75 percent of the proceeds go to the Boyne City Airport, and 25 percent goes to the police depart-ment.The Boyne Valley Lions Club will be supplying food and bev-erages.The drag race happens every La-bor Day weekend and Memorial Day on Sundays.
