Interlochen’s Community Art Trail Underway

This fall, Interlochen began work on the Interlochen Community Art Trail, a 3.5-mile “non-motorized trail connecting parks, schools, campgrounds, neighborhoods, businesses, and cultural destinations throughout Interlochen,” per a press release from Interlochen Center for the Arts.

Celebrity donors, executives supply cash to Michigan's midterm races

WASHINGTON — Celebrity donors have quietly poured money into Michigan's competitive midterm election races, albeit mostly on one side of the political aisle. Democratic candidates have received donations from artists and entertainers like comedic actor Danny DeVito , singer and actress Barbra Streisand and children's book author Judy Blume , while Republicans' most famous contributors are business and finance tycoons like Ross Perot Jr. and Ken Griffin . The latest round of donations became public in recent days after campaigns made mandatory federal disclosures. Those disclosures painted a consistent picture in Michigan and across the country: Individual donors gave more to Democratic candidates, but Republicans have an overall financial advantage thanks, in part, to dark money business entities that are not required to disclose the original source of funding. More: Tracking biggest donors, spending in Michigan's US Senate race In Michigan's record-breaking U.S. Senate race, Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed of Ann Arbor ($30.7 million) more than tripled the third-quarter haul of Republican opponent Mike Rogers of White Lake Township ($9.7 million). Rogers, however, has an overall money advantage because of spending by super political action committees aligned with the GOP leadership and President Donald Trump. A similar trend has played

Tank Space’s Ale of the Earth

It’s dark beer season, and we love celebrating it in all its shades of glory, from chocolatey porters to sweet, smooth doppelbocks to boozy imperial stouts. If you’ve been a dark beer skeptic in the past, Tank Space (the satellite location of Earthen Ales) has Ale of the Earth, a lightly-smoked English brown ale that supplies all the full-bodied flavor and cozy, cold-weather enjoyability of dark beer without losing the approachability of lighter brews. The 4.5 percent ABV is especially welcoming if heavier stouts and porters have historically been too rich for your blood. If you enjoy it, you’re in luck! Earthen Ales just rolled out a whole bunch of terrific autumn beers, from the brewery’s take on Oktoberfest, to a barrel-aged version of Ale of the Earth, to a small-batch doppelbock. Enjoy at 1110 E. Eighth St., Traverse City. tankspacetc.com.
