The Mecosta County Sheriff's Office has received a $1,875.00 grant from the Great Lakes Energy People Fund.

Officials say the grant was used to purchase some vital equipment for K9 Zeke.

Through this grant Zeke is receiving a new doghouse and a long-range GPS tracking / training collar.

This will help both Zeke and his handler tremendously in both training and in the field when he is out on calls.

Members of the Great Lakes Energy support the People Fund by voluntarily rounding up their bills to the next highest dollar.

The rounded-up amount is distributed to non- profit organizations and charitable activities that benefit people in communities served by the cooperative.
