Five years ago, Leelanau County residents passed a millage for early childhood services. The millage is now up for renewal in a vote scheduled for August. With the goal of informing the community about how this funding has been used, the League of Women Voters Leelanau County is sponsoring an April 3 forum titled “The Early Childhood Millage—What it Supports and Why it Matters.” The forum takes place from 7-8 pm at the Suttons Bay High School auditorium.
Parenting Communities is hosting a family Street Fair on Saturday, July 16, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., at Leelanau Montessori School Campus in Lake Leelanau. Parenting Communities is proud to offer this free event for Leelanau County families to come together to listen to music, participate in a variety of fun family-friendly activities (e.g., face painting, crafts, etc.), and connect with our Parenting Communities team and other Leelanau families and resources. Antojitos and Forever Yum food trucks will be on-site to provide food and ice cream for purchase.
