[edit] Halloween Free Play at NewAge Arcade

I wouldn't exactly call this a festival...it sounds more like a promotion. - FireForEffect

I agree I don't think it should be listed also the points of interest I don't think should be a promotion spot for New age and Gary Fields and such...

This is not the city seal. The graphic pictured is the city logo, the city seal is completely different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.41.6.130 (talk) 02:14, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

According to battlecreek.org this is the current official city seal. --Vertigo315 (talk) 15:46, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/8c/Battle_Creek_City_Seal.jpg This is the City of Battle Creek seal. The pic you have is of a city logo, which is being used on vehicles. Battle Creek Enquirer article of January 1, 1985, states "The seal, which appeared on the cover of the Battle Creek City Charter, adopted in 1859, was designed to illustrate the bloody river bank "battle" after which city took it's name." This is the seal stamped on all official documents of the City of Battle Creek.

[edit] Battle Creek as third largest city in Michigan?

I thought it was Warren, Michigan which is being overtaken by Sterling Heights, Michigan. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 20:31, 16 April 2008 (UTC) Stan

Upon rereading, I note it is by area, not population. My mistake. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 20:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC) Stan
