This week starts with the observed Juneteenth – although local Juneteenth events happened over the weekend. As it is a federal, state, and city holiday, many people will be off on Monday. Expect places to be more crowded than a typical Monday.
Thank you to Ann Arbor Jaycees Carnival for Sponsoring this Week’s Highlights.

The Ann Arbor Jaycees Carnival returns to Pioneer High School this week. Be sure to check Facebook on Wednesday afternoon for a walkthrough video of all the awesome rides.

Arbor Annie’s Weekday Highlights
The Ann Arbor Jaycees Carnival is one of the highlights of the week – and would be even if they weren’t sponsoring this weekend’s roundup. As I drove by on Monday morning, the carnival was starting to arrive. We will be visiting on Wednesday and hopefully sharing a video walkthrough.

Top of the Park continues this week with some great events. The Canopy spectacle runs through the weekend – get your biking legs ready! This week’s movie highlights include Raya and the Last Dragon on Tuesday, A League of their Own on Wednesday, and Spiderman No Way Home on Thursday. All great movies! Meanwhile, the Annex hosts AADL with Bob Ross Painting on Wednesday and tastings on Tuesday & Thursday. And of course don’t miss the KidZone tent with fun activities each night.
