Grand Rapids' first LadyFest hits town

Grand Rapids' first LadyFest hits town

by Roberta King

The ladies are taking over The Pyramid Scheme on Saturday, March 3 with Grand Rapids' inaugural LadyFestGR. The event will feature all female line-ups of musicians, artists, comedians, workshops and other fun stuff. Organizer and musician Jes Kramer said that LadyFest events first began in Olympia, Washington but her first experience was when she attended and performed at a LadyFest event in northern Michigan.

"It was the first time I'd ever heard of it. I did a bit of research and kept my eye open for other events in Michigan and nothing was turning up. I was kind of bummed out about that," she said.

GRPS expands summer food program

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM)- The federal government is renewing a program in Grand Rapids to make sure students eat well during the summer. 

Last year Grand Rapids Public Schools received a $700,000 grant which was divided among 2,500 low income students.  The money is placed on electronic cards and used to buy pre-approved items at local grocery stores.

Tuesday GRPS announced the government is rewewing the program so more students have access to healthy food during the summer months when school lunches are not available.

Woman dies in crash with GR church bus

CADILLAC, Mich. (AP) -- A 91-year-old woman whose car hit a church bus carrying 38 children has died at a hospital in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula.

The Grand Rapids Press and the Cadillac News say that Mae Ella King of Cadillac died Sunday at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City.

The Wexford County sheriff's office says King turned into the path of the bus Friday morning after pulling out of her driveway, about 90 miles north of Grand Rapids. King was trapped in her car.

No children from the Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Grand Rapids were hurt. The bus was headed to a ski resort about 40 miles northwest of Cadillac
