Free Shuttles will again be provided from the two main lots.  One is located at the Flat Rock Plaza (Formally the K-Mart Plaza) at 27313 Telegraph, Flat Rock, Mi 48134.  The second is located at the Flat Rock Community High School lot at 25600 Seneca Flat Rock, Mi 48134, behind City Hall.  The shuttles will operate Friday from 5:30 to midnight on Saturday 10 AM to Midnight and on Sunday 10 AM to 10 PM.  The busses will drop you and your family or friends off near the Bridge entrance of Huroc park and return you to you lot whenever you need to return.

New to this year’s Riverfest is onsite paid with donations going to local school activates or civic groups.  The cost will be $5.00 per car.

The Riverfest committee hopes these changes will help the flow of traffic and make the Riverfest experience a better one you and your family.

WELCOME TO FLAT ROCK

The first Euro-American settlers in Flat Rock were Michael Vreeland and his five grown sons between 1811 and 1820. Michael had been captured by British Rangers during the Revolutionary War and released after American independence.

The family purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2). The town was called the Village of Vreeland until 1838 when the Vreeland family sold off the majority of the land and relinquished control of the area. The Vreeland families built the first grain and lumber mill, having brought the grinding stones from New York.

Descendants of Michael Vreeland still live in the town and attend Flat Rock public schools, being the seventh generation to reside in the town their family founded.
