    In addition to a valid drivers license, Newaygo strictly adheres to “a three tooth minimum” in all saloons. Checking guns is not necessary.

    Ah Newaygo!! Where you can feel free to love your wife like your cousin or vice versa.

  3. I like the wholesome sports program. I support the Newaygo Lions above any other sholastic sports program in the country. Competitive Cheering, Track… that Palmiter Kid can really jump! and i am an avid Lions football fan. I even have a Jake Blammer poster.
    Go Lions!
