GRAND RAPIDS - Officials in nine west Michigan lakefront towns hope a public television show will boost tourism when warmer weather arrives.
Nine Lake Michigan communities will be featured in an hourlong episode of "Great Lakes Ports of Call" named "Michigan's Beachtowns."
So far, 18 Midwestern public television stations have picked up the show in cities such as Detroit and Chicago. Each station could run the show several times, beginning with this month's pledge drives.
