To the editor: Nostalgia, things not much heard anymore. • “That’s tops!” • “Swell.” • “In all my born days.” • “Soup’s on.” • “Hi doll.” • “Not in my lifetime.” • “Well, I have never…” • “Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle.” Donna Burr Leland. 05/01/2024 05:08 PM

Uptick in Piping Plover population a plus
The plight of the Piping Plover, a small, endangered shorebird, calls for attention and conservation efforts as another breeding season is in full bloom on the peninsula from April through July. We would like to highlight the continued success of the Piping Plover research team at the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore (SBDNL) after years of hard work that has undoubtedly led to a rebound in the small shoreline birds population. 05/01/2024 05:08 PM

LEELANAU HISTORY
LEELANAU HISTORY
The owner of Sugar Loaf Resort, Jeff Katofsky, was expected to return to Leelanau County tonight and spend most of Friday in private discussions with local business and government leaders before departing the same day. Meanwhile, the general contractor who has been working for Katofsky over the past year on a major hotel rehabilitation project in downstate St. Clair County noted that some work was underway at Sugar Loaf Resort this week. Heavy equipment and work crews this week were removing underground storage tanks from the Sugar Loaf property as part of an initial cleanup plan approved years ago by the Leelanau County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority. *** The Leelanau County Election Commission was minutes away from acting on petitions to recall Kasson Township Clerk Traci Cruz from office this week when Cruz submitted a letter of resignation to her township board via email. Kasson Township Supervisor Greg Julian let members of the Election Commission know about the letter of resignation he’d just received during an initial “public comment” opportunity at the commission meeting Tuesday morning. 05/01/2024 05:08 PM
