GRAND RAPIDS, Mich — The 40th Annual Sand Sculpture Contest returns to Grand Haven City Beach this weekend.
Organized by the Camber of Commerce of Grand Haven, Spring Lake, Ferrysburg and Lake Michigan Credit Union, participants of all skill levels will flock to the beach from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 12.

Teams, families and individual artists' creations will be judged and awarded prizes.
In order to compete, you'll have to register and pay the participation fee before the event begins.
