Introducing Our Harvest at the Commons 2017 Raffle Items
This year, we’re including a good old fashioned Raffle as part of our Harvest at the Commons celebration, Saturday at the Grand Traverse Commons. Instead of going to the highest bidder, everyone’s got a chance to win these awesome prizes.
Introducing Fall Fellows, Tori Craig and Arcelia Moreno
Groundwork Fellows complete projects alongside our policy staff, attend conferences and networking sessions, and receive professional development training. Each fellow completes an independent project to complement Groundwork’s program areas based on their area of expertise, and presents this project to conclude their term.
Dancing to Grupo Ayé, an Afro-Caribbean salsa band with Grand Traverse roots
Grupo Ayé has a bona fide local connection to the Grand Traverse region. Band founder Robert Mulligan spent part of his childhood in Omena in Leelanau County, where his mother lives. We caught up with Robert to learn more about the band, about his love for Latin music, and about his northern Michigan roots.
