At Short’s, we work hard to bring you the best beers the state of Michigan has to offer. At the end of the day, we’re also trying to stay active and keep ourselves in tip top shape. Thanks to our friends at No Boundaries, the Short’s Health and Wellness team will soon be fitted with super kick butt Jamis bikes. Check out No Boundaries in Boyne City, and tell them Short’s sent you.

Greetings all open mic participants,

First off, thanks for all of your participation!  We have really enjoyed hosting open mic for the last several years.

Unfortunately, we are at a juncture with our music program in which we have to temporarily discontinue open mic.  Without consistent personnel to run sound and logistics for the evening, we are unable to facilitate the weekly program.  If we can implement a system conducive to running an open mic night, we will.

Thanks again for many nights of great music!

Cheers!
