Migrant fair growing every year, organizers say - welcoming back migrant families to West Ottawa, Michigan

The sixth annual West Ottawa Community Migrant Fair ushered in the start of the migrant-worker season Saturday with food, entertainment, fellowship and an array of area services.

“It’s getting bigger every year,” said Denise Archer, West Ottawa migrant coordinator.

“It’s a welcome back to our migrant families to our community and to West Ottawa schools. It’s a ‘thank you’ in appreciation of their hard work,” she said.”*
