Mother's Day: Free frozen custard for moms at Monroe Culver's
MONROE — Celebrate mom this Mother's Day with a free scoop of frozen custard with one topping. Culver's of Monroe, 1899 N. Telegraph Road, is offering the cool treat for moms of all ages. 'It's a promotion to celebrate all the moms in the community,' said Darian Dykstra, general manager. 'We invite moms to come in and get a free scoop of custard. We're just excited to celebrate moms and everything they do for their kids and our community.' Since opening in 2021, the local eatery, known for its butter burgers and fresh frozen custard, has been offering the free promotion on Mother's Day. The Sunday, May 11 event and custard are always popular with families, according to Dykstra. 'The fun thing about custard is that it is not an ice cream based solely on how we prepare it,' she said. 'It's premium ingredients. It's smooth and velvety unlike ice cream which has ice particles in it. We freeze it to a temperature where you don't get those ice particles so it's creamy versus an ice crystal crunch.' More: Mother's Day is May 11. Here are some gifts she'll love from local stores Dykstra said her crew is ready to serve the free frozen dessert. 'It's been pretty big since it started but there's always more we can do to promote it,' she said. 'We're really excited to reach out to as many moms as we can to thank them for all they do for their kids.' — Contact reporter Lisa Vidaurri-Bowling at lvidaurribowling@ This article originally appeared on The Monroe News: Mother's Day: Free frozen custard for moms at Culver's of Monroe

NEWPORT — Retired Monroe County Drain Commission commissioner, long-time Monroe County Fair Board member and lifelong area farmer Rollin Webb, 90, of Newport, died March 31. Funeral services are planned for Saturday. Webb was elected Monroe County drain commissioner for three consecutive terms, serving a total of 12 years before retiring in 2006. "He was a great man. I considered him to be a very good friend," said David Thompson, current Monroe County drain commissioner. "He hired me. He was a great guy to work for; very fair and very honest. I will miss him." In 1959, at age 25, Webb joined the Monroe County Fair Board. He served for 57 years, until 2016. He held several offices and is the longest-serving member of the board. Webb received the fair's Meritorious Service Award, according to his obituary. "It was a long ride and I've seen a lot of changes,' Webb told The Monroe News when he retired from the board. 'The Monroe County Fair came from nowhere to being Michigan's finest. When we started going to conventions, people didn't know where Monroe was. Now they do.' "I was grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Rollin during the beginning of my career here at the Monroe County Fair,' said Darryl Diamond, fair manager. 'Rollin was a dedicated and knowledgeable board member for many decades. We were all blessed to know him. We have lost a true friend of the Monroe County Fair."
