Ottawa County ‘Shelter in Place’ Drill – October 6th

Outdoor sirens: not just for tornados

Lou Hunt, Ottawa’s Emergency Management Director and the County’s ‘official storm chaser’ wants you to know that outdoor warning sirens are not just for tornadoes.

“It’s important that our citizens understand that the outdoor warning sirens can alert for many types of emergencies,” said Hunt. “If you hear the outdoor warning sirens, go inside and seek more information.”

The sirens are often used to alert residents of tornados or high winds, but they could also be used during a chemical hazard or nuclear threat. Sirens are intended to alert people who are outdoors (within about a mile of the sounding location) to seek shelter and further emergency instructions from TV, radio or media technology. The sirens are tested monthly from April through October.

‘Shelter in Place’ Drill

Just days after FEMA sent its own test wireless alert, Ottawa County is holding an emergency test of its own. This Friday, October 6, will be the last test of the outdoor warning siren for 2023. Emergency planners are urging residents to take a moment and simulate a real emergency on Friday. Officials are calling it a Shelter In Place Drill for a Chemical Emergency and here’s what you should do for the simulation:

  • Go inside and close doors and windows. For this drill, we are acting as though a poisonous vapor has been released into the air.
  • Shut down air conditioners, furnaces or fans. The goal is to keep outside air from entering inside.
  • Grab a role of duct tape and simulate taping window and door jams and covering vents.
  • In a real emergency, you would stay in your home or current location (called “shelter in place”) until a message reaches you that it is safe to resume activity.
  • If you cannot physically practice these steps, at least think about them.
  • If you are part of a business or organization, have you designated the responsible party for these steps? Can you discuss these steps with your team?

“In a technological world, a variety of chemicals travel our roads, rails and are even manufactured in Ottawa County. Having the capability to shelter in place during a chemical emergency is a something we need to be prepared for,” said Hunt.

Anyone who participates in the drill can provide feedback online.

MUSKEGON, MI – Michigan’s Adventure, the region’s premier amusement park, will debut Tricks and Treats, an all-new fall event offering fun for the whole family, on Saturdays and Sundays, September 16 through October 15

Families will also be able to enjoy select rides, including attractions at Camp Snoopy, the park’s newest kids’ area where kids, parents and grandparents can all ride together.  

Snoopy® and his PEANUTS® pals will show off their costumes and invite kids and parents to wear theirs as well and come ready to show off their spooky, kooky creations at the Spooktacular Costume Parade. 

Unique characters on the TRUNK or Treat Trail will distribute tasty candy treats from classic vehicles with a special Halloween twist. Additionally, young guests will be invited to Mask Makers Bash and Patch’s Pumpkin Party after a trip on Patch’s Pumpkin Express where they will hunt for the perfect pumpkin. Tricks and Treats will offer seasonally themed games and special live entertainment, including the Deadly Duo and the Skelebration Dance Party. More adventurous little monsters and inspired parents will want to check out Bonesboro Acres or play a round of Ghoulish Golf. 

At Tricks and Treats, guests will find an exclusive bounty of boo-licious fall foods and drinks at food locations throughout the park, including the Boardwalk Boo-fett.  Kids will find special magical potions specifically designed for them and mature ghosts and ghouls can enjoy our bewitching local brews, magical elixirs and Michigan-made wines on our Brews and Boos Lakeside Beer Garden Patio.  

“We are excited to bring this new, over-the-top Halloween experience to guests of all ages,” said Camille Jourden-Mark, vice president and general manager. “Tricks and Treats offers something for everyone to love. Bring the entire family, kids, parents and grandparents, and make new, unforgettable memories together!”

“Farms are the Tapas” Fundraiser to Celebrate Farmland Preservation in Ottawa County

Ottawa County’s picturesque landscapes and thriving agricultural heritage are set to take center stage at the upcoming “Farms are the Tapas” fundraising event on September 28. This evening raises funding and awareness for Ottawa County’s farmland preservation program, a vital initiative dedicated to safeguarding the region’s agricultural legacy for generations to come.

Hosted at The Red Shed of Hudsonville, “Farms are the Tapas” will be an evening of culinary delights and community gathering, offering attendees unique opportunities to savor the flavors of locally sourced dishes while contributing to the preservation of Ottawa County’s cherished farmlands. The event will showcase the county’s vibrant agricultural scene by featuring a variety of tapas-style dishes crafted by local chefs competing for the coveted Harvest Knife Award.

“We are thrilled to invite the community to join us in celebrating the heart of Ottawa County—its farms,” said Julie Lamer, Farmland Preservation Specialist. “Ottawa County’s Purchase of Development Rights program plays a crucial role in protecting the land that sustains us, and ‘Farms are the Tapas’ is our way of honoring the hard work of our local farmers while raising funds to continue these important efforts.”

Tickets for “Farms are the Tapas” are available for purchase at miOttawa.org/tapas and cost $50. In addition to the dining experience, a silent auction will showcase an array of items and experiences. Opportunities to bid are available to both attendees and those unable to attend. Register to bid at event.gives/Tapas2023 and preview the auction items. Bidding opens on September 25, three days before the event.

Funds raised from “Farms are the Tapas” will directly benefit Ottawa County’s Purchase of Development Rights program, aiding in the acquisition of conservation easements. By supporting this cause, attendees will contribute to the long-term viability of the region’s agricultural landscape and help ensure a prosperous future for Ottawa County’s farming communities.

For more information and ticket purchases, please visit miOttawa.org/Farmland.

About Farmland Preservation Program

By selling the development rights to Ottawa County, this program allows participating landowners to receive compensation for the development potential of their land, yet still retain ownership and other rights associated with it through a permanent easement.

Free Community Dance Event To Honor Troops in Fruitport

logo

DANCING INTO SUNSET, MILITARY NIGHT: Pomona Park, 93 S. Third Ave, Fruitport, MI

Dancing Into Sunset Honors Troops at Military Night with Live Music Featuring The Silverado Band, with A Cappella Patriotic Group Voices of Freedom, and Special Guests, the U.S. Coast Guard and Scout Troop 4023

Free community event, Dancing Into Sunset, headed into its 7th Season on June 8, 2023, moving steadily toward Military Night, its mid-season tribute to the service people of the U.S. Armed Forces, law enforcement, and first responders, which will be held on July 6, from 6:30pm to 9:30pm.

Sponsored by Dietz House Moving Engineers, crowd favorite The Silverado Band, and a cappella singing group Voices of Freedom, will showcase patriotic music at Dancing Into Sunset for this year’s Military Night event. The U.S. Coast Guard plans to bring a boat down to the Fruitport boat launch to join the dance again this year, provided there are no emergencies on the water. Scout Troop 4023 will also help us pay tribute to each Military Branch. Military veterans will be able to join the U.S. Coast Guard and Scout Troop 4023 on stage to stand behind their respective Branch flags after they are marched out during Voices of Freedom’s Branch song medley around 8pm.

Tribute Honors Available for Fans

As part of Military Night’s special honors for our troops, visitors can bring a photo of their loved one to place at the “Wall of Fame.” Those who wish to make a contribution to the night ahead of time can stop by Fruitport Orchard Market and donate non-perishable items to a collection box that Blue Star Moms will send off to the troops. The box will be on site at Pomona Park, Thursday, July 6, where visitors will also have an opportunity to bring non-perishable items and to write a note or short letter to slip into the box to encourage our service people. Special treats will be donated by Fruitport Orchard Market, and flowers will be donated by Spring Lake Floral. Mini American Made Flags will also be passed out.

In addition, this year Harbor Transit’s Laker Loop Trolley is FREE and circles Spring Lake every hour. The Laker Loop Trolley stops at Pomona Park regularly during dances, and connects with the Grand Haven Buccaneer Loop Trolley at the Spring Lake Holiday Inn, going to Pomona Park and back from Grand Haven.

Last summer, hundreds gathered at the Pomona Park Band Shell on the sunny shore of Spring Lake to enjoy The Silverado Band and Voices of Freedom for Military Night. The U.S. Coast Guard and Scout Troop 4023 participated in last year’s honors as well.

Join Dancing Into Sunset for Military Night, July 6, 2023, 6:30pm to 9:30pm, to celebrate our freedom and pay respect for those who fought to preserve it!
