Jim Roth portrayed Emanuel Rentschler during Saline Area Historical Society program

Imagine Seeing Rentschler Farm Museum through the Eyes of a Child During Your Next Visit, Part 2

June 8, 2018

Two weeks ago, many Saline Journal readers took a step outside their comfort zones as they approached Rentschler Farm Museum. For some perhaps, a small step. For others it felt more like a leap. [1,2,3] We imagined what it must have felt like for local grade school children to speak with local volunteers of our Saline Area Historical Society in-character as residents of this homestead circa 1930. Like any polite guests, they started out in ....

SHS Drama Club held its “audition workshop” yesterday for students interested in appearing on stage as part of Newsies: The Musical, set to debut at the Ellen A Ewing Performing Arts Center on February 28, 2020. [1-5] If that feels like a bit of a whirlwind on the heals of closing matinee for its fall play 12 Angry Jurors, those who were a part of the audience are undoubtedly not alone in the sentiment.

Clean, Reliable Water Supply In The City of Saline Is Not Really the Stuff Of Which Dramatic Headlines Are Made

June 12, 2018

When a Saline water main broke last month it attracted major media coverage out of Detroit. Alternatively characterizing it as a “large” and “massive,” television station WXYZ Channel 7 deployed no less than a helicopter to provide live coverage. Who knew there was so much excitement to be had at the corner of North Maple and East Michigan Avenue? [1,2] Grossly missing in so much of this was a substantive explanation of what had actually ....

Dog Rescue Event This Saturday May Be The Serendipity You Didn’t Know You Needed To Find An Ideal Best Friend

June 13, 2018

It was just about this time of year in 2006 when a Corgi-Lab mix was placed on a trailer for his fourth and last weekend trip to what for him was another distant destination. This time, the place was Saline. Is it really true that black dogs are less likely to be adopted? If not that it was surely something in his case.
