Glen Lake Chamber of Commerce

PJ Party, Tree Lighting & Holiday Markets

There’s plenty to do during Thanksgiving weekend around the Glen Lake area.

Start by shopping early during the PJ Party in Glen Arbor on Friday morning for special sales at participating merchants. Eat out Friday then come back after dark for the annual Tree Lighting and Christmas caroling to get you in the holiday spirit. Then on Saturday, you’ll have a great opportunity to buy from your local artisans during two Holiday Marketplaces!
