Michigan has given us many things: four seasons in a week, debates about the best coney dog, and enough memorable moments to fill a library.

Now it's your turn.

Join us for Hastings Open Mic on June 18 at 6:00 PM and share a true story from your life in Michigan—or enjoy an evening of laughter, surprises, and local storytelling.

After all, every legend starts with, "You won't believe what happened..."

How many of us have received a mailing from our "lender" and immediately thought, "What's wrong now?"

Join representatives from Union Bank as they discuss common financial scams, warning signs to watch for, and practical ways to protect yourself from fraud. Learn how to identify suspicious communications and gain confidence in recognizing what's real and what's not.

Get informed. Stay protected. Gain peace of mind.
