Big Weekend May 6 & 7: Spring Harbor Hop AND The Homegrown Music Festival!

Two of the best annual events at the Lake of the Ozarks are coming soon, and they're taking place on the same weekend! Both the 20th Annual Spring Harbor Hop AND the 2nd Annual Homegrown Festival are coming to Dog Days Bar & Grill this May 6 & 7, 2017. If you celebrate Cinco de Mayo with us on Friday too, we'll be having a whole lot of fun together every moment of the entire weekend! 

20th Annual Spring Harbor Hop
Saturday, May 6
This incredible event is the perfect time to get your boat out on the water for the season if you haven't already. Our Lake of the Ozarks waterfront bar & restaurant will open up at 11:00 am on Harbor Hop day, as will our sister restaurant, Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina. There are 2 of your 7 stops already planned out! 

If you've attended a spring or fall Harbor Hop in the past, you already know how exciting this day on the water can be. If you're new to the Harbor Hop, here are the basics.

Over 40 waterfront bars and restaurants set up checkpoints where you can collect 1 of the 7 cards needed to complete a poker hand. You may begin at any of the checkpoints. A $20 optional donation gets you access to one hand, but you are welcome to play more if you like. You will turn in a completed hand at your 7th and final stop, where you have the option to purchase a bonus card for $5 if your hand needs a little help. Prizes are granted to the top 10 hands, the 4 worst hands, 10 random hands, and 4 section winners. You can find a full list of checkpoints, a Harbor Hop map, prize information, and more at www.Funlake.com/HarborHop.  

Here at Dog Days Bar & Grill, we'll have plenty of live entertainment to keep you dancing all night long once you're done hopping, plus plenty of incredible live music happening during the Harbor Hop too. Stevie Newman will perform from 1-5 pm, Chuck B & the Bad News Band will hit the stage from 5-9 pm, and the Atomic Sunburns will play from 10 pm - 1 am. You'll want to go home and get plenty of sleep after that, because we're partying again on Sunday, all day long!
