We are anxiously awaiting the Bayrama FishFly Festival! It's an annual event for our family and we have the best time. We watch the parade, ride all of the rides, play the games, eat the great food, play in the park, and run into tons of family, friends, and neighbors. To top it off, we especially love the fireworks! Everybody involved does a great job at this event.

Looking forward to the sunshine and the family atmosphere our city brings. I look forward to the hustle and bustle of the children playing outdoors, the splashing of the pool and beaches. cruising the lake in our boat, the Fish fly festival, the taste fest, the farmers market and of corse the fireworks. Our city is a wonderful place to live and it offers some of the greatest food around. summer is by far my favorite time of the year!

We are new here in New Baltimore. We moved here from Eastpointe last October and so far look forward to each and every day. We live in the beautiful historic down town district. I love sitting on my patio and enjoying the smell of steak cooking at lil Camilles or fresh bread baking at Stahls, Walking to Walter and Mary Burke park is a family treat that we take almost everyday. The fishfly festival although we have never had the pleasure of attending is something the whole famly is looking forward to. As a new member of this wonderful town take it from me there is no one thing to look forward to. We are lucky to live here and look forward to each and every day.

Welcome to a wonderful community. There is a lot to do and this is a great time of year. Remember: Farmers Market starts tomorrow. Be sure to go and get your Dalia bulb so you can grow your own. Yoga in the Park and soon - fresh veggies. While in town - go across the street and enjoy a sample of wine @ Washington Street Wine House. We are long time residents of N.B. - living in the same home since 1963. Welcome ! <+><

Looking forward to eating ice cream cones on the pier! Sitting on a blanket and watching the swans while we eat subs is a summer favorite, and of course the fireworks!

How very favorite - Tastefest + Fireworks + Parade. That's it ! We can hear 'the music???' in our own little home - about 1 mile from the beer tent. Sound travels across the water and it ain't all bad. OH yes !!! AND the Fish Flies.... It would not be BayRama without those little critters.

We are also looking forward to the Farmer's Market, as well as a nice bike ride around town and down by the water. The fireworks are very enjoyable especially when family and friends show up to enjoy them with us!

I am looking forward to the Farmer's Market for sure. I love to find the things that are ripe and delicious and plan a meal around these local treasures. What a great way to support local business! I am also a teacher in Anchor Bay so I'm looking forward to running into my students while in the area over the summer and finding out what great things they're doing over Summer Vacation... 7 more school days left after today!!!

We're looking forward to the Bay Rama event as well as launching our sailing Kayak at Brandenburg Park. Also looking forward to just sitting at the park in New Baltimore as the water has a relaxing, tranquil effect on us. Hoping also to see a facelift in the city of New Baltimore that may mimic the Washington Street Winery, another great addition to city New Baltimore!

I grew up here and have chosen to raise my family here. I'm a stay-at-home mom with 4 kids under the age of 8 so it's going to be a long summer! We love Bay-Rama, especially the parade where my parents and I have sat in the same spot for 35 years and always ask Rosco for a "free shake". We will visit the library and see what Miss Kelly has planned for us, and walk over to the park for a picnic and playtime. A trip to Stahls for an ice cream and some belly-button cookies will definitely happen more than once this summer!

I'm looking forward to the fireworks. We can see them great right from my deck in the backyard. This year will be even better because we've invited all the family out to watch the fireworks and celebrate my daughter's double-digit (10) birthday.

This time of year marks the beginning of memories that will last forever. Bay Rama fish fly festival is the start of those memories and I am grateful for all the hard work and dedication the people of New Baltimore put forth year after year.

There are so many great activities to choose from in New Baltimore it is hard to choose just one! I would have to say one of our favorites is the BayRama Parade. The fireworks is a close second.
