News from the Week

Stories from the week included schedules for Leelanau District tournaments in volleball and basketball, the launching of a web site for the Northport Promise, and a feature about the play Almanac of the North featuring scenes selected from works by Ernest Hemingway, Bruce Catton, Jim Harrison, Lynne Rae Perkins, Kathleen Stocking and Anne-Marie Oomen (to be performed this weekend).

The Week’s Weather

We took a Snow Day this week and thought a little about how cool is it that Michigan kids get these random holidays through the winter – probably not many of those in Arizona. We’re also in the middle of another today! Last weekend will probably be legendary in the annals of Leelanau iceboating for the amazing conditions.
