Local resident and business owner, Dotti Thompson has volunteered to take over as event coordinator from outgoing event planner, Patricia Widmayer. With this good news, the Glen Lake Chamber is pleased to be able to continue the longtime tradtion of hosting this event, with the new leadership and volunteers. The market showcases both quality and variety of artisan-made goods.
In years past, the successful event has had a wait-list of artists wanting to participate and is very well attended by shoppers. This year, Dotti and the Chamber are still seeking additional vendors.

The Glen Arbor community will continue other holiday traditions on the Friday of Thanksgiving weekend such as: PJ Party, Bed Parade, and Tree Lighting and Caroling. Then, in early December enjoy “Shop & Sweets Saturday” at participating local businesses offering treats, refreshments, activities for kids and familys while they “shop small” for the holidays. Also in December, the Chamber hosts “Ladies Night” for an evening out in and around Glen Arbor.
We invite you to shop and dine locally and “think small” for the holidays.
