Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer

With Executive Order 2020-183, Governor Whitmer has allowed cinemas opportunity to again prove their community value

September 28, 2020
Who remembers experiencing the introduction of “sensurround” audio technology when the 1974 motion picture Earthquake premiered in cinemas? [1-4] As news broke this past Friday that movie theaters throughout Michigan at long last would be permitted to re-open on October 9, 2020, it must have felt like a lot like that to those who believe there is only one true way to fully appreciate the artists’ visions for their films.

In the closing period of “Detroit Pen Show” presentation, Tom Baley was upstaged by his own Pelikan fountain pen collection

The “New” Lodi Township Hall Formally Celebrated Its Opening Twenty Years Ago Today

July 27, 2006
For some it’s hard to believe there was ever any other Lodi Township Hall, in any other place. Easily visible from Saline-Ann Arbor (though sometimes requiring a bit more effort, depending on crop growth), the current building is set a quarter-mile west down Pleasant Lake Road.
