This week’s edition brings plenty of reason to celebrate our community! The Village of Elsie continues moving forward with exciting development at the former high school building, with construction set to begin in 45 days. Meanwhile, Ovid is gearing up for its Apple Fest on September 19th at the Little League Field—a perfect family outing featuring apple games, cider, donuts, and fresh apples from Wyrick’s Orchard. Plus, local artist Rachel Rodriguez is celebrating the release of her new single “Your Love,” a heartfelt tribute to 34 years with her high school sweetheart.
Community events are in full swing this fall. The Ovid-Elsie Marauders are hosting their 25th Annual Cross-Country Invitational and gearing up for homecoming week (September 14-18) with spirit days and a football game against Mt. Morris. The Michigan apple season is also ramping up with exceptional quality and above-average crops expected across the state—great news for our local orchards and farmers.
