River Club Glen Arbor Targets June Opening
Announces Exciting Job Opportunities
River Club Glen Arbor (RCGA), located on the Crystal River, is thrilled to announce its grand opening mid-June. RCGA will offer an all-new dining experience featuring delicious and healthy Mexican-inspired eats, signature drinks from the Caddy Shack bar, riverfront and Sky Deck seating, a concert stage, a beautifully landscaped 18-hole mini-golf course and a gift shop loaded with stuff to make everyone smile.
“We’re beyond excited to launch this new entertainment experience to the good people of Northern Michigan. Our hope is that families and friends have as much fun enjoying the park as we’ve had building it” stated Mike Sheldon, Founder & CEO.
“The Crystal River is a gem not everyone has daily access to. So now folks can have a front row seat to enjoy a good meal and their favorite drink all while watching the fish, birds and kayakers go by. Then for some friendly competition your group can play a custom designed Michigan-inspired mini-golf course. The nice thing about a putting course is it’s fun whether you’re seven or 97” added Sheldon.
“We’re committed to providing locals and tourists with a relaxing day in the park. Our hope is that you, your parents, your kids and someday their kids, will develop fond memories at River Club” stated Gina Sheldon. “It’s hard to describe us in a sentence or two, there’s just so much going on. It’ll be like a party in someone’s really cool backyard” stated Chuck Damman, Partner, Park Operations.
To ensure an unforgettable experience, RCGA is looking for happy and hard-working people to fill various positions. To mix things up a bit, RCGA is throwing a Job Fair/Party in the Park on Saturday, May 18, from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM. The event will provide an opportunity to meet the team, get an exclusive firsthand tour of the park and learn how the RCGA team works with and treats people. On top of that, all attendees will get to play a few holes just for the fun of it! Oh, and there’s a goody bag chock full of RCGA swag!
The Club offers signing and incentive bonuses, great compensation, flexible scheduling, staff meals, discounts, and a party-like atmosphere for all employees. Who’s needed:
• Prep Cooks (in a brand-new kitchen)
• Food Servers (who like to smile!)
• Bartenders (who smile because they make so much $)
• Porters, Bussers & Dishwashers (who get to enjoy great music/fun people)
• Gift Shop Representatives (who’ll sell really cool stuff)
For those unable to attend the Job Fair, applications can be filled out electronically at: https://form.jotform.com/241164398222152

Jim Dorsey will be honored as our Grand Marshall for the 4th of July Parade this year. Jim, an Empire treasure, is enjoying his 100 th year on Glen Lake. His service as Empire postmaster for 28 years and his first-hand recall of local events during the past century is cherished by all his friends and acquaintances.
This annual community parade is open to anyone who wants to celebrate the founding of our great country on its birthday. Parade vehicles will gather in Glen Haven early Thursday morning at 10:30am and will proceed towards Glen Arbor at Noon. Walkers are asked not to join the parade until the last vehicle passes the Christian Science Church, via Forest Haven Rd.
This is all of our parade! Please help keep yourself and others safe. Many stretches are very crowded. Please keep children away from entering the street and follow the guidance from the “broom crew” which is comprised of many volunteers who “broom” candy from the street. Water balloons and squirt guns are prohibited, and we ask you to spread the word to all our spectators. Anyone is welcome to participate. No registration is required.
Please contact the Township office at (231)334-3539 if you can help with the “broom crew.” More helpers are always welcome. Flagging tape linking orange cones emphasize the boundary for parents and their children.
