Chamber Announces Tom Kern’s Retirement
Elk Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce board president, Tom Shelder, announced that Executive Director Tom Kern will be retiring from his duties at the Chamber, effective June 30th.
"Tom has had a tremendously positive impact on Elk Rapids since he took the Executive Director role in 2015," said Shelder. "His many contributions to the community have moved us forward on a number of fronts, including growing Chamber membership, bringing broadband to the village, advocating for affordable housing solutions, and being a leader on economic development initiatives. There's no way to adequately thank him for all that he has done."
The Chamber board will undergo a search for Kern's replacement. In the interim, Chamber staff members Laura Savoie and Maryl Kohl will co-direct Chamber operations and activities. Kern will also consult with the Chamber on an as-needed basis through the end of 2022. Mary Lakin will continue in her role as Events Coordinator.

Friends of the Elk Rapids Library Host Meet & Greet & Book Swap
The Friends of the Elk Rapids District Library board is inviting members—past and present—and anyone interested in learning more about the group to a book swap mixer Thursday, June 23 in Elk Rapids. The Meet & Greet & Book Swap is open to anyone who loves books and loves the library. It’s an opportunity to chat with other readers and supporters, as well as meet the many new members of the Friends board and office staff.
“We wanted to host an event where members can simply get out of the house to meet other members and talk about books,” said Bobbitt Bellingham, the board’s membership chair. “This isn’t a fundraiser or planning event. It’s just a night for us all to come together to get to know each other and talk about some of our favorite books.”
The Meet & Greet & Book Swap will be Thursday, June 23, 5-6 p.m. at Art & Connection, 965 Green Street, Elk Rapids. Light refreshments will be provided. If you have questions, contact the Friends at friendoftheerlibrary@gmail.com

After a few years of uncertainty, the tradition of a fireworks display over the Torch Lake sandbar is returning.
At dusk on Sunday, July 3, 2022, the skies will be lit up in glory due to the efforts of a few area residents, and with financial assistance from people like you. Fireworks chair John Feola, the owner of Johnny’s Torch Riviera, said “The fireworks are back, hopefully, to stay! There have been some glitches over the past few years leading to occasional cancellations, but we hope that we can get the financial backing from community members to make the fireworks a reality in 2022 and beyond.”
To support the fireworks, simply visit www.torchlakefireworks.org and click on the “Donate Now” button. Donations may also be dropped off at the Riviera restaurant or mailed to 12899 Cherry Avenue, Rapid City, MI 49676. Please make checks payable to South Torch Area Association (STAA). The STAA is a 501c(3) organization, so donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by the law.......Continue Reading

Butterfly Mural Unveiling
A year-long collaborative project between the Elk Rapids Garden Club and students from Elk Rapids High School culminated last week in the unveiling of a monarch butterfly mural in Veterans Memorial Park. The mural is designed to highlight the connection between art and nature and is the brainchild of a junior member of the Elk Rapids Garden Club, Paige Peters. Student artists that worked to bring this concept to reality also included Bernice Dunnill, Madeline Espinoza, and Avery Walters. The mural allows individuals to stand in front of it, snap a photo, and magically become one with the monarch. The mural was installed on the shed near the tennis courts at Veterans Memorial Park and is approximately eight feet square. It’s weatherproof and will also have containers with native plantings that are butterfly friendly nearby. Come see this new addition to the community! 🦋🦋🦋
