The week of May 10 the Chamber of Commerce will host (with member support) a Pure Michigan media effort consisting of a DNR executive and the editor of Shooting Times magazine. The publication is the most widely read outdoor sporting publication in the United Kingdom â?? first published in 1882. Also, we will host State Rep Triston Cole who will speak about Pure Michigan / tourism at our Citizen of the Year banquet on the 15th.
Special thanks to the members who provided support for these efforts: Island Airways, Harbor View Motel, Oak Woods Condos, Gordonâ??s Car Rental and Bill & Andy Kohls.
