The Old Mission Peninsula Education Foundation board members will be at the Jolly Pumpkin today, Dec. 20, from 5:30 to 6:30 for a casual meet and greet. Everyone is invited to attend and get the scoop on the status of the purchase of Old Mission Peninsula School (OMPS) from Traverse City Area Public Schools.
Foundation Board president Allison O’Keefe notes that while they’re unable to discuss details about the negotiation of the OMPS property, building and contents, “we understand people have questions,” she says. “Foundation members will be available to chat about the foundation, as well as answer any questions you may have regarding the future of our school.”

SUPPORT YOUR INDEPENDENT LOCAL NEWSPAPER: I started Old Mission Gazette in 2015 because I felt a calling to provide the Old Mission Peninsula community with local news. After decades of writing for newspapers and magazines like the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Family Circle and Ladies' Home Journal, I really just wanted to write about my own community where I grew up on a cherry farm and raised my own family. So I started my own newspaper.
Because Old Mission Gazette is a "Reader Supported Newspaper" -- meaning it exists because of your financial support -- I hope you'll consider tossing a few bucks our way if I mention your event, your business, your organization or your news item, or if you simply love reading about what's happening on the OMP. In a time when local news is becoming a thing of the past, supporting an independent community newspaper is more important now than ever. Thank you so much for your support! -Jane Boursaw, Editor/Publisher, Old Mission Gazette
