Allegan County eatery cited for 'many' leaks in kitchen ceiling

Each month, the Allegan County Health Department inspects restaurants, schools and other facilities for unsafe food practices. Adhering to proper safety practices is critical to preventing foodborne illness and promoting public health. ACHD recently completed an online portal for viewing reports, available at allegancounty.org/health/environmental-health/food . The Sentinel is sharing "priority" violations — those that could "directly lead to contamination of food or increase the risk of transmitting a foodborne illness" — from Holland, Hamilton, Saugatuck, Douglas and Fennville in the month of October, as well as corrective measures taken. The Sentinel will also report on "priority foundation" violations — ones that could lead to a priority violation. The health department notes "core" violations, but The Sentinel will only report on those if there's a significant accumulation in a single eatery or if that eatery also has more serious violations.

Local woman celebrates her first birthday party at 90

Before her 90th birthday, Mable Thompson of Battle Creek had never had a party thrown in her honor. She didn’t go to the prom or have a wedding reception. The youngest of 13 children, Thompson said an individual birthday party would have been simply out of the question. Thanks to friends, family and the staff of perhaps her favorite place on earth, FireKeepers Casino Hotel in Battle Creek, she didn’t have to wait a full century to enjoy a party. On Oct. 24, 90 years after her birth in long-since closed Nichols Memorial Hospital in Battle Creek, Thompson celebrated the happy occasion at the casino, complete with well wishes illuminating from the resort’s marquee. “The party was unbelievable,” said Thompson. “There were about 50 people there, all my friends, my family, friends from the casino. I just think the casino should be recognized for what they did for my birthday.” Staff from the casino declined to comment, citing a policy of not referring specifically about any guests of the resort. Mounds of gifts awaited Thompson, including a bouquet made of candy bars and lottery scratch-off tickets. “I got $485 worth of lottery tickets altogether from friends," she said. The guest
