It's SOUP - TOBER! Through October 31st, the Allegan County Food Pantry Collaborative (ACFPC) is running the annual October soup drive. Their goal as a county is to collect 10,000 cans of soup – this enables participating members of the ACFPC to provide soup and other pantry needs for individuals and families during the cold winter months.
Cans of soup can be dropped off at Hillside Learning Center, the Tech Center and the Education Service Center.

We appreciate all you do for the students we serve.
FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a national test of the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS). The test will take place at approximately 2:20 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Oct. 4, 2023.
The national test will help ensure that Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) and the Emergency Alert System (EAS) continue to be effective ways to warn the public about emergencies, particularly those on the national level.
All major U.S. wireless providers participate in Wireless Emergency Alerts and will transmit the national test to their subscribers.
If your mobile phone is on and within range of an active cell tower from a participating wireless provider, you should receive the national test. Wireless providers will transmit the national test for 30 minutes, but your phone should only receive it once.
The test will reach millions of mobile phones across the country via Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA), radio and television via the Emergency Alert System (EAS), and other communication pathways.
