Hey Gang - how bout an update on the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans project where the Home Depot is offering a chance at $250,000 for improvements to the facility on Monroe Street down by Riverside Park.

Grand Rapids is a little behind in the voting and we still really need your help.  You can vote once daily and the key to this is sharing the voting link with your friends on Facebook/ Twitter Etc.

A local group called Team G.R. Vets/ Grand Rapids/ Home Depot has established a Facebook page to keep you up to date on the tally of votes, links for voting, sharing and pushing this along.

We have many great titles in in West Michigan like Muskegon being the "Beer Tent Capital of the World" or Grand Rapids being "Beer City USA" but the reality is we are a caring compassionate and kind giving community and these are our greatest hero's we are helping to provide a better life for so VOTE in a poll that really makes a difference.
