GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Now that it's Opening Day and hunting season is in full effect, a number of outdoorsmen and women from across the state are heading Up North and leaving their significant others home alone for the weekend.
We endearingly call them "deer hunting widows" and they'll be on the hunt for their own kind of fun this weekend.
Many places in West Michigan are offering deer hunting widow events and special, including Alpine Hair and Day Spa. The salon is offering discounted pamper sessions.
Deer hunting widows can get 20% off all spa services this weekend. The salon is located at 5353 Alpine Ave. NW in Comstock Park.
