CLARK LAKE, MI – It’s almost time to get crabby in the Beach Bar at Clark Lake.

Hermit crabs will take over the Beach Bar & Restaurant’s patio, 3505 Ocean Beach Road, from Thursday, July 11, through Saturday, July 13, for the 33rd-annual Great American Crab Races. Like previous years, kids and adults will race their hermit crabs to see who will reach the outside of the ring first.
