    What’s the status on CASTAWAYS HOTEL and CASTWAYS BEACH in St. Joseph? Can someone bring me up to date? We cannot and should not allow Castaways to fall through the cracks indefinitely. Is Castaways to be re-built? How soon?

      I was home in April and I was told it is being demolished. Noone told me if it will be rebuilt, but word is it is looking for investors or funding to do so and may rename it entirely. :-|
