The Calhoun County Road Commission will accept up to 25 used tires per County household at its facility on 15 Mile Road in Marshall on Wednesday April 25 through Friday April 27. The collection site is located near the recycling bins, and tires can be dropped off there between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Walt Obrinske will be collecting tires from Clarence Township roadsides during this same three day period.

People who have driven by the Clarence Township Hall recently probably noticed that the metal siding is being replaced on both ends of the building. The same work was performed on the back of the building last year. The siding had become badly worn, and some of the sheathing underneath it is also being replaced.

We have had numerous bald eagle sightings around Duck Lake for the past several months, including at least one mature bird with the classic white head and tail. The eagles come to catch fish or ducks and are frequently successful. Does anyone know of an eagle nest someplace east of Duck Lake, in either Calhoun or Jackson County?
