Good morning, this is your Traverse City Local Frequency for Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025.
We’re waking up to a bustling week in Traverse City, with the last days of summer bringing plenty of energy and a full slate of activities for locals and visitors across the region. If you’re an early riser and want to dive into our city’s rich past, the guided walking history tour is happening today at 10 a.m. at Perry Hannah Plaza. This two-mile stroll winds through Traverse City’s historic neighborhoods and along the waterfront, with expert guides sharing stories about the people and places that shaped our community. Bring some comfortable shoes and a curious mind—it’s one of the best ways to see our city from a new perspective.
This evening, folks and their furry friends are invited to September Recess on the patio at K and A Hop Dogs from 5 to 7 p.m. It’s a special networking and community hangout with The Ticker crew, offering dogs a social scene as lively as their owners. It’s a great spot to relax after work, grab a hot dog, and make some local connections.
Looking to the weekend, excitement is crackling in the air as Traverse City hosts the third annual International Fireworks Championship at Turtle Creek Stadium. This Friday and Saturday, six champion pyrotechnic teams from around the world—including groups from the U.S., Poland, Canada, China, Portugal, and Serbia—will light up the night sky with dazzling displays choreographed to music. Audience voting will help crown a fan favorite, while a panel of experts selects the official champion. Limited tickets remain, so don’t miss your chance to see one of the country’s most spectacular firework competitions.
Downtown Traverse City has a mix of hellos and goodbyes this week. The much-anticipated Voyageurs Comedy Club is set to open in the old Mackinaw Brewing building on Front and Cass, bringing laughter and national acts to town. Meanwhile, it’s the end of an era for Trains and Things Hobbies, which is closing after 43 years as a beloved gathering spot for young and old hobbyists alike. And for the foodies, the Old Mission Grill is preparing to reopen under new ownership, with a target of November for its fresh start.
In local development, all eyes are on the future of the Camp Greilick park as East Bay Township weighs its site plan for the sprawling 196-acre public space. Some community members have voiced concerns about gatherings and events, but county officials have placed tight restrictions to balance recreation and preservation. Also on the civics front, Traverse City is planning updates for beloved landmarks like the Bijou by the Bay and Carnegie Buildings, sure to spark plenty of public interest.
If you’re shopping for a home, recent sales show a slight slowdown compared to last summer. Experts say it’s part of a wider trend that could create opportunities for buyers. And for tech enthusiasts, TCNewTech is celebrating ten years with a pitch competition later this month.
Finally, for those thinking about making Traverse City home, Traverse Connect just launched a new $5,000 relocation incentive to attract workers to the region. It’s one more way the community is aiming to grow—and keep its local spirit strong.
This has been Traverse City Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
