The donations received will go toward helping Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council accomplish its mission to protect, restore and improve the water quality of Northern Michigan.

Founded in 1979, the Watershed Council speaks for the water resource of Antrim, Charlevoix, Cheboygan, and Emmet Counties.

The Watershed Council works to maintain the environmental integrity and economic and aesthetic values of the Great Lakes, inland lakes, rivers, streams, wetlands, and groundwater.

“We are always looking for ways to get involved within the community, and we are grateful to the dining establishments in Boyne City for hosting these events,” said Gail Gruenwald, executive director of Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council. “It’s a good reason to enjoy delicious food and drink with friends and family, while also supporting the Watershed Council’s mission and efforts.”
