Trini's Provides "Food for Thought" and Invites Public to Support Education

Submitted by kreed on Monday, October 24th, 11:42 am

Downtown Trini's Mexican Restaurant has once again partnered with the Sparta Education Foundation to raise money to benefit Sparta students. The 7th annual "Food for Thought" fundraiser will be held at Downtown Trini's (148 E. Division, Sparta) on November 7th from 4:00-9:00 p.m. All tips from both take-out and eat-in meals will be donated to the Foundation. Sparta teachers and administrators will welcome patrons and help Trini's exceptional staff on this one special night of fun and good food.

The Foundation was established in 1991 as an independent 501c3 non-profit organization. Some would say its motto "to provide the extras for education" is even more important today. In total the Sparta Education Foundation has provided close to $221,000 in grants to Sparta teachers for classroom resources, student trips, professional development, etc. All of the grants directly benefit Sparta students of all ages.

Great Food at Maple Street Restaurant!

I had noticed we had a new restaurant in town called the Maple Street Restaurant. I decided last week to finally scope it out so Elizabeth and I ordered take out from their lunch menu. As I arrived to place my order I introduced myself to the new owner who was very friendly and courteous. Elizabeth ordered chicken strips, which she absolutely enjoyed and myself a salad, which was quite delicious. So, overall, the food and service made it money well spent and we both agreed we would be back!

This restaurant is definitely recommended!!!

Maple Street Restaurant: 220 East Division St., (616) 887.7211.

SPARTA, Mich. (WZZM)- Two weeks after his 10-year taco eating record fell a West Michigan man has reclaimed the honor.

Tommy "Too Tall" Thompson ate 39 tacos Tuesday night at Downtown Trini's in Sparta. He promised to reclaim the record when it was broken on September 28th.

You may recall Jacob Larry broke Tommy's record by eating 38 tacos. Both men are on Trini's Taco Wall of Fame.
