Mike Griggs
Born a military brat, I grew up in a family rooted in service—my dad was a proud West Point grad who served 22 years in the Army. His last post brought us to Albuquerque, but after retiring in 1977, we settled in Grand Junction. As the oldest of seven, surrounded by siblings, nieces, nephews, and grandkids, our family celebrations are legendary!
I moved here permanently in 1979 after realizing Grand Junction felt like home. That same year, I started in the auto industry, where I met Pete—my boss turned best friend. We've worked together on four ventures since, including Yard Party Junction (Celebration Yard Signs, Exciting Foam and Bubbles and Yard Games).
These days, my wife and I have five kids, 16 grandkids, and family gatherings with 50+ people. We know how important it is to celebrate life’s milestones, and we wanted to help others do the same.
That’s why we started Celebration Yard Signs—because every big moment deserves to be seen, shared, and celebrated.
Let’s create smiles, one yard at a time!
