Summer Festivals Need Volunteers
As the excitement of a fun-filled festival season is upon us, this year, more than ever VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED. Countless hours are spent planning, executing, and promoting events, often times by small committees. This year, more then ever, the community and our businesses are looking forward to have some normalcy back in Boyne City.
Volunteering allows you to connect to your community and make it a better place. And, volunteering is a two-way street: It can benefit you and your family as much as the cause you choose to help. Dedicating your time as a volunteer helps you make new friends, expand your network, and boost your social skills.
There are several opportunities to volunteer. Contact the chamber at 231-582-6222 or info@boynechamber.com for a list of organizations that NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Volunteers are needed from 11 a.m. – approx. 1 p.m. to help with street closures and directing cars on where to park.

ODAWA CASINO - Collects For Purses With A Purpose
Odawa Casino, with the help of the community, presented donations to the Michigan State Police for their Purses with a Purpose program last week. In honor of Women’s History Month, the Michigan State Police launched the Purses With a Purpose program to help collect important items for victims of sexual assault. When a survivor is leaving an abusive situation, they often must do so quickly and are not able to take necessities with them. The goal of the program was to collect donations of purses that are filled with comfort items and necessities to provide them to these survivors. ‘Purses with a Purpose’ was started in 2019 by a trooper at the Cadillac, MI post who saw what a great need for support there was for victims of sexual assault. Since then, the program has grown and become successful at other MSP posts throughout the state of Michigan. Odawa Casino became a drop off location for items this April and plans to continue to participate in years to come. Owned and operated by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Odawa Casino in Petoskey opened in June, 2007 and features nearly 1,000 slot machines, table games, multiple dining options, the fabulous Victories Sports and Entertainment Bar, and an off property 137-room hotel. Odawa Casino Mackinaw City opened in May 2016, and recently completed a new expansion for an even higher quality gaming experience.

NORTH CENTRAL MICHIGAN COLLEGE Formally Adopts The Timberwolf as New Mascot
During an April 27 meeting, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously in favor of the mascot that students said best represents the college: The North Central Timberwolf.
President David Roland Finley said the Timberwolf captures the spirit of the college and its students.
“Wolves embody many of the characteristics of North Central students, including intelligence, resilience, drive, focus and teamwork,” Finley said. “They are known for working together so that the whole pack succeeds. You’ll find the same attitude among our entire campus community.”
Carol Laenen, vice president of Marketing, said the adoption of the Timberwolf mascot follows a months-long, data-driven process that included two rounds of surveys, extensive sentiment analysis and tests of concept art. Visit their website HERE for more info!
