There are so many reasons why I love Glyndon! I love Glyndon because this is where I call home! I love the walkability, the community events, and the proximity to all of the amenities I use all the time, like Starbucks, Chick Fil- A & Target, along with the community staples like Reister’s Daughter, The Cow, and Wear it’s At. Friday nights in the summer, you can catch Music on Main (a free summer concert series), The Bloomin’ Arts Fest kicks off every spring with local blooms and music, and the Beer and Wine Festival is always a fun time to connect with neighbors and meet new people. Both local fire departments and the local library host a ton of community events, and the Glyndon Pool is the perfect place to take a dip all summer long!
