FastTrac NewVenture New Business Training Program 
 
The Chamber of Commerce Grand Haven Spring Lake Ferrysburg is partnering with the Michigan Small Business and Technology Development Center (SBTDC) and Michigan Works! Ottawa County to present the FastTrac® NewVenture™ program for dislocated workers in West Michigan to evaluate business opportunities and develop an action plan for starting their business.  The road to successful entrepreneurship begins with passion about an idea, a business plan based on research and analysis, and the persistence to pursue the vision. Whether a displaced worker has always dreamed of being an entrepreneur and due to recent circumstances triggered more thoughts about starting a business, FastTrac® NewVenture™ is designed to introduce entrepreneurs to the key elements of successful entrepreneurship.

 
Relay for Life 
 
Grand Haven Relay for Life will be held September 11 at Lakeshore Middle School.
 
Lisa from Spring Lake District Library stopped by the Township staff meeting last week to let us know what's happening at the library. There are many events, including special events celebrating Abraham Lincoln throughout September. Visit the library's website for more information.
 
 
Best Wishes,
