Make Sure Your Dress Is Right Before Stepping Onto The Saline’s Summerfest Trolley For Tour Guide Duty This Year

August 2, 2018

What comes to mind when you think of Saline’s Summerfest? Or its car show? Or, in this case, its trolley? [1] Sometimes it’s nice to pull back the curtain and show a bit of the process that goes into the seeming effortlessness of delivering wonderful substance. Sometimes it’s the littlest things — things you might never notice, unless they weren’t there. Other times, they’re bigger. Last month, for example, we told one such story as ....

But the setup by Jonathan Veley was different. In fact, extremely so. One end efficiently catered to practical writing ....

The Boundaries and Substance of What it Means to be “Saline” Continue to Expand, and We’re There with You

June 4, 2018

From the Publisher— For many years I was one of those moms who brought water for the boys who’d marched in the Memorial Day Parade to Oak Wood Cemetery when our son was a Boy Scout with Saline Troop 446. [1,2] I remember they’d always end up sort of southeast of the lecturn, behind some of the veterans from the Legion. I tried not to let myself imagine that those men had more in common ....
