GRAND LEDGE — The boatlaunch at the southeast end of JayceePark has not been the pride of thecity’s park system.
But that may change now that thecity’s Parks and Recreation Commis-sion has put together a proposalfor improvement of the end ofJaycee Park, and has applied forfunds from the Michigan NaturalResources Trust Fund to coverapproximately three-fourths of theestimated $190,000 cost.
Muddy when it rains and dustywhen it doesn’t rain, the boat launcharea, at the end of the newly con-structed river walk, functions tofunnel runoff from M-100 and RiverStreet into the Grand River.
“There are a lot of runoff issuesin this area, even though it’s adirt road,” said Rachel Kuntzsch, a
member of the Parks and RecreationCommission.
While the boat launch is usable, itis muddy, slippery and unstable.
“Reconstruction of the boatlaunch is one of the top priorities inthe newly adopted Five Year Plan forParks and Recreation,” said GrandLedge Mayor Kalmin Smith.
The Natural Resources TrustFund is supported by annual reve-nues from the development of State-owned mineral resources, largely oiland gas, and is designated for acquir-ing and developing land for publicuse.
The fund is expected to havebetween $35 million and $40 millionavailable for grants this year, saidKuntzsch, and of that amount 75 per-cent will go toward acquisition ofland, and 25 percent for develop-ment projects.
She estimates the state hasreceived between 100 and 150 appli-
cations for the available funds.The proposal calls for an asphalt
drive with cement work which willserve to direct runoff water into arain garden, where it will be filteredbefore going into the river and thewater table.
Plans include a concrete boatlaunch ramp, and a boardwalk whichwill connect to the end of the exist-ing river trail, and lead to a wharfoverhanging the river bank.
“The idea is to provide more fish-ing opportunities,” said Kuntzsch. “Ithink this project will score well, rel-ative to the scoring requirements.
“For example, we are providingmore access to water, to fishing, towildlife viewing. These are all impor-tant opportunities. We are connect-ing it to an existing pathway, to apark. We don’t charge for the park.”
The city will know in mid-sum-

DELTA TWP. - Starlight DinnerTheatre, Delta Township’s own pre-mier dinner theatre, will be closingits 6th season by bringing some arealocal favorites, past military per-sonnel, and new faces to the stagetogether for the rollicking southerncomedy “The Hallelujah Girls” onMay 6, 7, 13 and 14.
“The Hallelujah Girls” was writ-ten by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hopeand Jamie Wooten, the same authorsthat brought the wacky and funFutrelle Sisters in “Dearly Beloved.,”“Christmas Belles” and “SouthernHospitality” to Starlight’s stage.
Hilarity abounds when the feistyfemales of Eden Falls, Georgia,decide to shake up their lives.
The action takes place in SPA-DEE-DAH!, the abandoned church-turned day spa where this group offriends gathers every Friday after-noon.
After the loss of a dear friend, thewomen realize time is precious andif they’re going to change their livesand achieve their dreams they haveto get on it now.
But Sugar Lee (LeAnn Dethlef-
sen of Mason) their high-spirited,determined leader, has her hands fullkeeping the women motivated.
Carlene (Linda Granger of Delta)has given up on romance, afterhaving buried three husbands. Nita(Carol Ferris of Grand Ledge) is anervous wreck from running inter-ference between her problematic sonand his probation officer.
Mavis’ (Jan Ross of Mason) mar-riage is so stagnant she’s wonderinghow she can fake her own death toget out of it.
And sweet, simple Crystal (JanetAnderson of Lansing) entertainsthem all, singing Christmas carolswith her own, hilarious lyrics.
The comic tension mounts whena sexy, ex-boyfriend (Charlie Martinof Grand Ledge) shows up unex-pectedly, a marriage proposal comesfrom an unlikely suitor (Rick Deth-lefsen of Mason) and Sugar Lee’sarch rival (Susan DeRosa of St.Johns) vows she’ll stop at nothing tosteal the spa away from her.
By the time the women rallytogether to overcome these obsta-cles and launch their new, improved

DELTA TWP — Who doyou call when a family fallsinto a parking lot drain andcan’t get themselves out?
When a family of babyducks fell through the slotsof a drain in Delta Town-ship’s Red Roof Inn parkinglot on Tuesday, the man-ager had to make that deci-sion.
“They called us,” saidCapt. Karen Hester of theDelta Township FireDepartment. “Didn’t knowwhat else to do.”
Eaton County DrainCommissioner MichaelAtayan, who normallyworks on larger projects,was also called andresponded to the scene.
Unwilling to risk anyperson’s safety by goinginto the confined space,the responders lowered a
bucket and managed toentice three members ofthe family to jump into it,while the ducklings’ morewary siblings refused tomake the leap.
“It was my first duckrescue,” said Hester.
All 11 ducklings wereeventually rescued andreunited with their mother.

DELTA TWP. - This Canada goose is very easy to miss,tucked on a median filled with ornamental grasses andmulch. She’s almost motionless, too, except when sheturns her head to stare at you.
“Don’t get too close,” she seems to say from her perchin the parking lot behind the W. Saginaw Office Max.
Meanwhile, her partner patrols another median closerto Target, as if whatever danger might come will comeonly from the west. Why would a pair of wildfowl choosea busy parking lot for their nest when there’s a pond justacross Ivan Street with plenty of privacy?
For one thing, geese are very adaptable, according toEaton County parks naturalist Jackie Blanc, especiallyin urban areas. “They’re pretty persistent, as long asthere’s water and food nearby,” Blanc said.
We can’t see the eggs, of course, but typically there
Mary Jo [email protected]
Parking lot goose hunkers down in Delta Twp.are two to five, each of which takes more than a day to layand a month to incubate.
The staff at Target and Office Max weren’t awareof the geese. Neither were the students at Waverly’sOmbudsman program, which fronts on the same parkinglot. . Someone is aware, though, because this mother hasa pile of grain on one side of her body and a pile of breadcrusts on the other. Experts agree that in urban areas themain predator of geese is people.
So if you see the nesting goose, give her a wide berth.No more bread or crackers, either, because they are lowin protein and contain additives that geese can’t handle.
Blanc says she always tells children that, for wildfowl,bread is like Easter or Halloween candy.
“You wouldn’t want to eat it everyday,” she said.Once they hatch, the goslings won’t stay around. In
fact, the chances are good that mom is already planningtheir next move - to that private pond across the street.
The W. Saginaw parking lot goose with the grain someonehas provided. On her other side is a pile of bread crusts.MARY JO WHITE/LCN

GRAND LEDGE - Fol-lowing the upset victory ofDeWitt, the girls had toturn their focus to theirCAAC Blue schedule.
The first league gamewas played at LansingEverett High School onApril 21. The JV teamplayed an uninspired open-ing half and entered half-time 0-0. In the secondhalf the JV Comets showedmore desire and determi-nation and ended up win-ning the game 3-0.
Freshman Kloie Kings-ley continued her hot startto the season with twogoals and freshman GabbyArambula scored her firstof the season. freshmanWhitney Wynalda regis-tered her second shut outof the season.
The Varsity teamopened the match againstLansing Everett withplenty of possession, butlacked a scoring punch.
Senior Kallie Catey hadrecently been named theLansing State Journal Ath-lete of the Week. She was aconstant threat to the goal,but was unable to find the
back of the net. Though theComets dominated in mostareas of the game, theyentered halftime tied 0-0.
The opening minutes ofthe second half gave theComets the opportunity toshowcase their offensivepotential.
The dangerous combi-nation of Kallie and JuniorLauren Stense proved toomuch to handle for theEverett Vikings.
Kallie scored twice,both assisted by Laurenand Lauren scored thegame’s third goal, assistedby Kallie. With 20 minutesto go in the match, Kalliecompleted her hat trickwith the assist comingfrom Sophomore BrettMcCuen.
Junior Kaitlin Collinand Sophomore MaddieBaker combined for theteam’s third shutout of theseason.
The second game ofthe CAAC Blue seasonmeant another road gameas the Comets traveled toOkemos. The JV teamdropped their game 5-0.
The Varsity team had
high hopes for the gameas they entered the matchundefeated. Early in thegame it became evidentthat the wind was goingto play a big role asthe Comets had to defendagainst it.
Though Okemos hadmuch of the possession,the Comets were able tobreak forwards and cre-ated two great scoringchances. After connectinga few passes, Kallie Cateywas able to beat threeOkemos defenders beforeputting her shot just wideof the far post.
Only minutes later goodplay from the Cometsresulted in a free kick justoutside of the penalty box.Lauren Stenson his a greatfree kick that went off thecross bar and out of thedanger area. Late in thefirst half the Comets con-ceded a goal that went offthe far post. Okemos led1-0 at halftime.
The second half startedwith difficulty as Okemosscored an early goal. TheComets fought hard, butwere unable to score a

Growing evidence suggests that long-term exposure to UVrays can lead to macular degeneration and cataracts, seriouseye conditions that can cause vision impairment or loss.
USE YOUR SUN SENSE You can enjoy the sun and still protectyour eyes from damage if you take a few basic precautions:• If at all possible, limit your time in the sun• Wear a wide-brimmed hat• Wear sunglasses that filter 99% of UV rays
PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN, TOO! Studies show that childrenreceive up to 80% of their exposure to damaging UV rays byage 18. To keep them safe, follow the same precautions as youwould for an adult, but be sure to choose sunglasses that fittheir smaller faces, have impact-resistant lenses with qualityframes, and have lenses large enough to shield the entire eye.
STOP IN BEFORE YOU HEAD OUT Our office can help youhave your day in the sun and do it safely. We offer qualitysunglasses - both perscription and non-perscription - thatmeet the highest standards for sun protection.
