Did you know?

A portion of the Eesley Mill, built in 1869, was originally a roller rink until Eesley purchased it in 1887 and converted it into the Sunshine Flour Mill, originally located at 119 W. Bridge St. The building was divided into two sections and moved to 717 E. Bridge in 1903, combining with an existing Grain Elevator Company. It became one of the largest producers of buckwheat in the country.

SMK Consignment LLC is now open at 360 E. Allegan St., Suite D, Otsego, right on the curve before you get to downtown. Owners Shannon Makela-Klinkhammer and Leo Klinkhammer have always dreamed of having their own consignment shop and now it's a reality. The name “SMK” came from Shannon’s initials and also the initials of her three daughters. Shannon explains that her parents bought the building back in 2012. The whole building is dedicated to her late grandfather, James S. Forcier, who operated a business in the same location. Shannon is happy to start her business in Otsego, her own hometown. SMK Consignment LLC offers a variety of affordable clothing for the entire family. If you would like to consign your clothing, the shop offers 90 day consignment with a 50/50 split. SMK has clothing in all styles from vintage to modern. The shop is open Monday through Friday from 10am-6pm and Saturday from 10am-4pm. As summer approaches, keep an eye out for their extended hours. You can call (269)491-1664 with any questions.

Easter Egg Hunt www.otsegomainstreet.org

I remember like it was yesterday. I was 12 years old when my father and I drove to the Art Hawks farm north of Watervliet. It was the season of Lent. Art’s son, Dale, is my same age. We went with our fathers into the woods where we found a couple of large branches from a tree that had fallen from a winter storm. The branches were hauled by tractor to a pick-up truck. We loaded the branches onto the truck and delivered them to the church where they were made into a large cross which was placed in the front of the altar of my home church for the Community Good Friday service. It stood l0 feet high; an imposing presence and powerful symbol of our Lord’s death. My father (the late Rev. Emerson Minor) began the service by remarking, “I don’t know how our Lord carried it. It took two grown men and two 12 year old boys to get this into the church.” I have studied the Bible and theology most of my life. I have visited the holy spot where tradition marks the place of our Lord’s death. Yet, nothing is more powerful to me than my childhood memory of the cross. This brings to mind that familiar old hymn written by Methodist Evangelist George Bennard, a friend of my late grandfather, Rev. I.W. Minor. Rev. Bennard was rumored to have been at a meeting in Pokagon (between Dowagiac and Niles, MI) in the year l913 when he finished the words of his popular hymn. Sometime between l939-l946 my mother, Eleanor (Minor) Tubergen, remembers the great hymn writer conducting evangelistic services and singing this great hymn in front of a large cross in the sanctuary of our church (Otsego United Methodist Church) … another powerful memory of the cross.
