I was wondering when the Welcome Center was going to be open. I'll have to check it out this weekend! | ||

Hey, now you'll feel extra-welcome! Anyhow, does anyone know which "three days a week" they're talking about opening the market? Friday through Sunday would be nice. | ||

I wonder if opening on Friday, Saturday and Sunday would water down Saturday attendance and the experience in general. Maybe they can spread it over a couple of days so that people in the area that like to buy a few days of groceries at a time can shop consistently there. I have no idea if there would be enough traffic to support this but Fri - Sun would be overkill in my opinion. | ||

Rfban, see https://www.atdetroit.net/forum/mes sages/5/107844.html Jt1, it might thin out the crowd a little, but sometimes Saturdays are almost too crowded, I think it'll be fine. If they tried to suddenly switch to being open 7 days a week, I could see that backfiring, but 3 days sounds just about right. I'll probably go on Sundays fairly often. | ||

Cars broken into at the market. They went way out of their way to be helpful and were uncommonly kind while doing it. | ||

Come to think of it I would probably go on Sundays more often as well. I guess it would be halted during the few days of Lion's tailgates. | ||

Good point Jt1... maybe they could drop it to 2 days a week once Fall rolls in, and through winter months... there is usually only 1 shed open during winter months anyway... ...or maybe, only having the 1 shed open on Lions Sundays... that would even make for a better tailgate, since right now, the only business consistently open on tailgate Sundays, is Ronnies Meats... which to their credit, offers their great full selection... love those ribs on game day.  |
