Highs and Lows of the High Season
May 22, 2023
We’re approaching the most wonderful time of the year in northern Michigan. Summer can be downright magical, with quiet morning hikes, afternoons at the beach, and endless entertainment opportunities for a night on the town. But all that fun in the sun also means increased traffic, long hours for hospitality staff, and pressure on our infrastructure and environment.
In this week's Northern Express - sister publication of the The Ticker - six leaders in northern Michigan who represent everything from nonprofits to national parklands talk about the return of the high season Up North. From the biggest challenges to the most urgent opportunities for growth, these leaders weigh in about the highs and lows of summertime in northern Michigan.
The Northern Express is available to read online, or pick up a free copy on newsstands at nearly 700 spots in 14 counties across northern Michigan.
