Whether you're spending the day with someone special, having a night out with friends, or showing yourself some love, here are a few ways to show you LOVE local! 

With the holiday season behind us and the new year underway, this is a great time to take a moment and reflect on how 2019 ended. Don’t get too caught up on the past though — spring will be here before we know it! At Stingray Advisory Group, we work with clients to help them create actionable and attainable plans for moving forward and help them with implementation. One step in the process is to consider what you’ve done well and what you’d like to accomplish next. We thought this would be a perfect opportunity to highlight what two fellow Local First businesses have been focusing on and to share a little bit about what we’ve been up.

Watermark Properties is a one-of-a-kind West Michigan company that consists of 7 golf courses, 2 golf simulator facilities, 3 private pools, 8 public RedWater Restaurant Group restaurants, and 8 banquet and event venues. If you are a golfer or foodie in Grand Rapids or the Lakeshore you have most likely golfed at a Watermark Properties course, dined at RedWater Restaurant Group restaurant, or attended an event at one of our beautiful venues.

nOur event venues continue to be some of the most popular spaces to host events in Grand Rapids. Because of increasing demand and our growing number of venues to offer, we are thrilled to present a streamlined approach for our guests in 2020 by combining the venues together as RedWater Events!

With the holidays quickly approaching, it's time to begin planning your holiday party. This year, why not try something unique and different than your typical venue?

Thank you to everyone who came to our first LF101 event! In case you missed it, here's a recap:
