Fear & Loathing on the Campaign Trail Mach II • Pre-Election Reflections and a Prayer of Unity for a Divided Nation

With the 2024 Presidential Election coming up prior to our next print deadline, we have no idea what the outcome will be, or if a winner will even be known by the time this publication hits the news stands on November 7th. What we do know is divisively distorted narratives propagated on both sides of the political aisle designed to fracture our mutual strength and trust in government to protect, cultivate, and fortify our shared and common interests in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness have apparently been snatched by demons managing to collectively haunt us with premeditated ignorance and uncertainty.

The Wizard of Oz • Midland Center Takes a Journey Down the Yellow Brick Road

As a pre-holiday present designed to lift and inspire our spirits in these tumultuous times, it is entirely fitting that Midland Center for the Arts is offering the Great Lakes Bay region an opportunity to travel over the rainbow with its ambitious musical stage production of L. Frank Baum’s beloved and classic tale The Wizard of Oz as it comes to life for a series of performances running Friday through Sunday, November 15-16-17th at 7:00 PM, with a special 2:00 PM Saturday matinee added for popular demand.

Saginaw Spirit Enters 2024-25 Campaign With One of the League’s Top Netminders

The last time Saginaw Spirit fans saw goaltender Andrew Oke in action, he was retreating to his goal crease mere seconds after the Spirit beat the London Knights to win the 2024 Memorial Cup. His Spirit teammates quickly made a beeline toward him and piled on top of him as he fell backwards into the net – which was both dangerous and euphoric at the same time. “Looking back if I could go back and do it again, I’d probably not go back to the net,” chuckled Oke. “But I was stunned. In that moment you don’t expect to score with 20 seconds left in the championship game. It was fun.”
