To honor National Crime Victim Rights Week, the Calhoun County Prosecutor's Office is hosting a resource fair on April 7 at First Congregational Church in Battle Creek.

To honor Women's History Month, reenactments of historical Battle Creek women will take place on March 22. “We’ll speak in first person like them and from there look at what made each woman so unique. Her style, inner beauty and her essence will be brought back to life in our readings." 

“We have a lot of loyal customers and this was their favorite restaurant, but they don’t come here every week... I think downtown Battle Creek has the potential to be great. We need more businesses and things to bring people downtown."

A study conducted by Ida Byrd-Hill, CEO of Automation Workz, found that Hispanics in Calhoun County are following a national trend that finds them outpacing other minorities in earning both college degrees and money. Many have high-paying jobs in technology or run their own businesses.

“In Kalamazoo, we have a proven track record of turning community vision into action: Ninety-nine percent of the actions in Imagine Kalamazoo 2025 have been completed or are in progress. This wouldn’t be possible without our community showing up and sharing their voices, ideas, and energy to help shape our community.”
