Tulip Time in Michigan Opens With Dutch Parade and Scrubbed Streets
Land Michigan holds Tulip Time May 16 19 with a town tour in tricorn hats knee breeches and silver buckles followed by the mayoral inspection of streets and the yearly street scrubbing. A Dutch folk parade schoolchildren’s costume pageant and visits to the Netherlands Museum and Dutch Village showcase the old world in the civic center armory and Tulip Time venues. The Klompen factory began in 1928 to hand craft wooden shoes for factory workers and farmers, with visitors watching the process from raw saplings to finished shoes. A note adds Michigan camping guidance for music fans.
