GIVE UNITED
Help us raise $190,000
for vital health and human services in Manistee County.
United Way of
Manistee County announces the kick-off of its annual fundraising
campaign, which will be chaired by Chief of Police Dave Bachman. The organization hopes to raise $190,000 this year for
vital health and human services in Manistee County.
Two events will
jumpstart the campaign:
A community-wide
kick-off breakfast will be held at Manistee Golf and Country Club on
Friday, September 11, beginning at 7:30 a.m. Learn how United Way’s
initiatives and its network of vital health and human service
agencies make lasting change in our community. Seating is limited, make breakfast
reservations by contacting 723-2331 or

The campaign heats up the following day, Saturday, September
12, with the ninth annual Kool 101.5 Chili
Cook-Off. The county’s finest chili chefs, both professional and
amateur, will serve up their specialties from 3:00-6:00 p.m. at the
historic First Street Firehouse in Manistee. Last year’s crowd
pleasers, All Strung Out and Gettin’ Hammered with Monica and
Monte Klein, will once again provide the entertainment for the
event. Unlimited tasting is available for $6 at the door. Prizes
will be awarded in professional and amateur divisions for best
tasting chili, hottest chili and best presentation. If you’d like to
