The Alpena-Montmorency-Alcona Educational Service District is honoring its school board members during January’s designation as School Board Recognition Month.

Current and former graduates of high schools in Alcona, Alpena, Montmorency and Presque Isle counties are encouraged to apply for new scholarships in 2021.

The City of Alpena will pay more to patch roads in 2021.

For the second time in as many weeks, it was relatively slow at the Alcona County Sheriff’s Office last week, which responded 40 complaints.

District Health Department No. 4 will begin vaccinating a new group of people on Monday.

January is National Stalking Awareness Month, a crime that impacts 1 in 6 women and 1 in 17 men in the United States annually. 

The number of flyers using Alpena County Regional Airport only mildly improved during a portion of 2020, as the coronavirus pandemic stifled air travel locally and across the United States.
