SUMMARY:Finno-Ugric Information Session
DESCRIPTION:Finno-Ugric committee to host information session \n  \nWhat exactly is Finno-Ugric? Why is Hancock so steeped in that culture? And how can I get more involved? \nAnswers to these\, and any other questions local folks might have\, will be available at a casual information session scheduled for 2 p.m. on Tuesday\, May 26 at Griffin Café at 208 Quincy Street in downtown Hancock.

This festival will feature several international guests\, including both Finland’s and Estonia’s ambassadors to the United States\, as well as a variety of programming and entertainment that’s perfect for the entire family. \n  \n“We were selected as the first Finno-Ugric cultural capital outside of Europe\, so that speaks to how authentic our expressions of our culture are here\,” said Jim Kurtti\, the honorary consul of Finland for the Upper Peninsula and the chairman of the Juhannus planning committee. “We’re excited by the many guests we have coming from away\, and want to share that excitement with our friends and neighbors here and share with them all they ways they can be a part of this unique\, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.” \n  \nFor more about the Juhannus celebration\, visit hancockfinnougric.com.

SUMMARY:For the Heartlands Fundraiser Dinner and Concert
DESCRIPTION:Kickstart the Summer with “For the Heartlands” Fundraiser Dinner and Concert on June 5\, 2026\nSupport the launch of the Keweenaw Heartlands Community Forest\nHANCOCK\, MI\, April 21\, 2026— The Keweenaw Heartlands Community Advisory Committee and Keweenaw Community Foundation are partnering to host “For the Heartlands\,” a fundraiser dinner and concert on Friday\, June 5\, 2026\, at the Hidden Pines Barn in Calumet. \nThe event supports the Keweenaw Heartlands Forest Fund\, held by the Keweenaw Community Foundation\, to establish the Keweenaw Heartlands Community Forest. The fund covers costs related to the early governance and management of this future publicly owned\, locally governed forest—one of the first of its kind in Michigan. \nSince late 2022\, the Keweenaw Heartlands Community Advisory Committee has worked to advance the project in partnership with The Nature Conservancy and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. The committee has spent over 1\,900 volunteer hours working to ensure sustained public access to the roughly 20\,000 acres in Keweenaw County that make up the Heartlands. \n“We joined the advisory committee because of our club’s mission to support outdoor recreation in the Keweenaw. One of our main trails is on the Heartlands property\,” said Daryl St. John\, Keweenaw ATV Club President. “For us\, it’s about continued access to off-road trails\, hunting\, fishing\, camping—and everything else we love about living in this area.” \nWith more than $324\,000 already secured\, this event celebrates the final phase of fundraising needed to reach the campaign target of $600\,000. Achieving this goal will enable the early planning and start-up of the Keweenaw Heartlands Community Forest once a local\, publicly elected Authority Board is established. \nEvent tickets are available now and expected to sell fast! Tickets are $125 each and include a sit-down dinner\, one drink token (cash bar also available)\, and live music from The Go Rounds. The event will also feature a silent auction showcasing uniquely Keweenaw experiences. Purchase your tickets online: http://bit.ly/4heartlands-tickets \nMore than just a night out\, this event offers attendees a chance to connect with others involved in this project to learn more about what’s ahead for this community forest. \nBecome a Sponsor\nCommunity members and local businesses are also invited to support the Keweenaw Heartlands Forest Fund through sponsorships that advance the campaign’s fundraising goal. Learn more about how you can sponsor: http://bit.ly/4heartlands-sponsor. \n“As I raise a family in the Keweenaw\, it’s very important to me that my children grow up in a place where they’re free to explore the wilderness\,” said Ethan Deshetsky\, of Hidden Pines Barn in Calumet and a Community Forest Hero sponsor for the event. “I support the Keweenaw Heartlands Project efforts to keep wild places open for future generations.” \nFor more information about the Keweenaw Heartlands Forest Fund\, visit www.keweenawheartlandsforestfund.org or contact Robin Meneguzzo at robin@keweenawgives.org or (906) 482-9673. \nFor more information about the Keweenaw Heartlands Project\, visit www.keweenawcommunityfoundation.org/keweenaw-heartlands.

SUMMARY:Noteworthy Spring Concert "Fab\, Fun\, and Female:  A Soiree of Song"
DESCRIPTION:Noteworthy will hold its upcoming spring concert\, “Fab\, Fun\, and Female: A Soirée of Song\,” at 7 p.m.\, Thursday\, June 11\, at the Houghton High School Auditorium \n  \n“Noteworthy is a fun\, fabulous group of women\, and for this concert we thought\, ‘Why not do songs that are just like us?” said director Joan Harbour. “As well as familiar tunes\, we have a few playful numbers that I know our audience will really like.” \n  \nThe concert also features Wende Jonas Hill\, a local folk/rock singer who performs with Dodge Street Band\, Trees\, and Soundwaves. \n  \nNoteworthy is the region’s only women’s barbershop chorus\, with a repertoire of familiar\, singable melodies performed in four-part harmony. \n  \nThe program includes “Big Girls Don’t Cry\,” “One Fine Day” and “Together Wherever We Go.” No concert about being female would be complete without Helen Reddy’s “I Am Woman\,” and all ladies in the audience will appreciate the whimsical ditty “A Dress with Pockets.” \n  \nNoteworthy does not charge admission for its concerts. A free will offering will be taken to benefit the Upper Peninsula Human Trafficking Task Force. \n  \nFor more information or to find out about joining Noteworthy\, contact Harbour at 906-482-5088 or noteworthychorus@gmail.com .
