Minutes before opening of Saline Craft Shows March 2018 event

There’s a Formula to Saline Craft Show Success and Community Value

March 29, 2018
Now almost two weeks after the Saline Craft Shows spring event, the time seems right to reflect back on what these attractions mean to our local community. Not just this year, but as a culmination of more than three decades. [1] The origin seems straightforward enough.

Some suspect the DeLorean that has started appearing in Saline may have enhanced capabilities not yet fully disclosed. [1,2] But we know any discussion of “How?” could never be as exciting as questions of “When?” and “Where?” The first answer is “December 1930.” The place: Saline, Michigan. You’ll ....

The Annual Camaro Superfest Is How a Great Car Show Should Look and Feel
