RAYMOND (POP. 764)
You might be surprised to see the variety
of businesses on our redeveloped Main
Street, ranging from banking and insurance
to carpenters and cabinet builders to auto repair and auto sales to our award-winning supermarket. We also have two recreational businesses, Apol’s Harley Davidson and Tensen Marine. For a small town, we have BIG things to offer.
Many Raymond visitors enjoy the outdoors by biking or taking walks around town or on our beautiful nature trails down by the lake bottom. Visitors also enjoy playing golf at Hawk Creek Country Club - our challenging, yet affordable, 9-hole public course.
The Raymond Civic & Commerce also hosts or supports several family friendly events each year, starting with the Memorial Day Parade in the spring, a Customer Appreciation day each summer, the Raymond Harvest Festival in the fall and the Holiday Express each winter.
Come explore our town and you’ll see why Everybody Loves Raymond!
