Holland’s Tulip Time Festival dates back to 1929 when the city planted 100-thousand tulips to celebrate the blossoms that trace their roots back to the country of Holland. 

Since then, millions more tulip bulbs have been planted, and the festival has added more spectacular events. Dutch-dressed street sweepers and folk dancers will take part throughout the week, and parades, carnival rides, traditional Dutch food, and drinks will also be available. If you’ve ever thought about learning Klompendancing, there will be free lessons multiple times during the week. For a slower-paced experience, you can take a Dutch shoe painting class or sample cheeses from the Netherlands. 

For more information, including a camera showcasing the flowers in bloom, visit Tulip Time.

But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him…
