Dog Bowl & Hot Air Balloons Recap

Ready, Set, Shop!

I’ve tried to think of some great catch phrases for reasons to come to Frankenmuth to finish up your shopping.  All I could come up with is, Why Not?  “Shop local” are strong words in today’s struggling economy and in small towns like ours.  It is not only important to our community’s growth, but also to continue traditions in making Frankenmuth feel magical this time of year as it comes alive with all the holiday hustle and bustle.  If it has been a while since your last visit to Frankenmuth (or perhaps you have never had the opportunity visit), we invite you to experience the Christmas wonder that our city provides.  Below are suggestions for a one or two day shopping adventure.

Santa’s In Town

Where can you find Santa in Frankenmuth?  He could be anywhere, but the most common places he will be this year are at Frankenmuth River Place, Bavarian Inn Lodge and Bavarian Inn Restaurant.  If you missed him at one place, be sure to check the next place and he might be there.  Frankenmuth is festive with with lights and Christmas decorations all through out town and down the river bank.
