ALLENDALE, Mich. â Members of the Facebook group Allendale Informed are coming together each week for one big tip to support local restaurants struggling amid the pandemic.
Meegan Zickus, a professor at Grand Valley State University and an administrator of the group, says it was inspired by the Tip Back Thursday movement started by Jenna Arcidiacono in Grand Rapids. We took a lot of inspiration from Chef Jenna and others like her, who are really trying to provide local servers and staff with financial and moral support, Zickus told FOX 17 News. So, we basically took time over the last two months to raise a weekly community donation for one big tip.the entire amount of those proceeds, usually around $200 to $400, were donated to restaurants.

ALLENDALE, Mich. â Grand Valley State University released a statement to staff and students Thursday after a reported mix-up regarding vaccine appointments.
The school sent an email (pictured) stating that COVID-19 vaccines were available as a result of appointment cancellations; however, the email did not address eligibility requirements. In turn, students who should not have received the vaccine were able to get their first dose. Others were already waiting at the entrance when they were pulled from the line, while many more learned their appointments would be canceled.
