tulipsOn Saturday, May 10, the Hope Church parking lot will be staffed by members of the People 1st of the Lakeshore. The parking lot will be roped off for the Parade of Bands and People 1st of the Lakeshore will be collecting a fee for parking as a fundraiser for their chapter.

People 1st of the Lakeshore is the Ottawa and Allegan County Chapter of individuals with developmental disabilities. Members want to speak for themselves and let people know who they are and what they have to offer. Their motto is that they are people first and their disabilities come second. Together we can help members achieve their God-given potential as citizens and help them become more independent. The local chapter has weekly and monthly meetings. For more information, call 738-8570.
