Dexter Village Events

Dexter's official history predates that of the state of Michigan by 13 years, having been founded in 1824 by Samuel William Dexter. Today, Dexter village is a thriving community. We encourage you to explore Dexter's many treasures before or after your massage...

Enjoy browsing charming shops like the Life is Good store, or dining at local restaurants, including the popular Dexter's Pub and Terry B's. In the spring and summer, enjoy a sundae from the Dairy Queen or a cookie from Cookie MOMster while relaxing on the gazebo steps in Monument Park. In the fall, take a stroll down to the historic Dexter Cider Mill on the bank of the Huron River, or enjoy the solitude and beauty of nearby Hudson Mills Park. In the winter, cozy up with a warm coffee or cocoa at Bearclaw Coffee Co.

Parades are a local favorite, as is the Victorian Christmas, Apple Daze and the annual Dexter Daze event that is held each August. Body Wisdom has participated in every Dexter Daze celebration since 2003 by providing free five-minute chair massages and handing out free bottles of water from our parade vehicle. Watch for us at the next Dexter Daze event held the second weekend of August.
