Foghorn: Sign of the Times

Observant travelers near the junction of M-22 and M-168 may have noted that the Welcome to Elberta sign is missing. The Parks Committee of the Parks and Rec Commission removed it Saturday, April 9, for renovations. Jennifer Wilkins of the Parks Committee remarked that at least one of the several Village amenities listed on the sign no longer exists—the public restrooms. Keep your eyes peeled for the sign's sparkling return, along with more new and improved signage around the Village.
