For some people, warmer weather means one thing: golf. We all have that one person in our life who golfs every chance they get. They have the special gloves, the shoes, the clubs, you name it.

Whether you’re an alumni or you just like MSU, Forest Akers Golf Courses @ Michigan State Universityoffers two beautiful courses. If you’re not a fan of MSU, we recommend hitting Groesbeck Golf Course or another equally wonderful course.

Where’s your favorite golf spot around Lansing? ⛳️

We HATE Lansing. We CANNOT stand our neighbors and their cute little dogs walking around our neighborhoods.

Today is National Doctors’ Day, which might as well be superhero day in our book. Doctors perform vital diagnoses, treatments and care for our Lansing-area community.

If you don't see your doctor today, make a note to thank them at your next appointment. You can also call their office and have the staff pass on the message!
