Oakwood Cemetery in Saline Michigan on Memorial Day 2016

Most Important Part of Memorial Day Was Missed During 2016 Parade

May 31, 2016
Saline had its annual Memorial Day parade yesterday. But unlike so many past years, it did not come to Oakwood Cemetery. [1,2,3,4,5] Ironically, the present deep-dig Michigan Avenue reconstruction is serving to increase cemetery visibility. Mature trees with formidable trunks and expansively shading canopes of leaves were significantly cut back along its north border abutting the thoroughfare. Eastbound traffic coming into the City of Saline on US-12 is shunted off onto Monroe Street, creating an ....
Albert Liu and Spencer Schneider, Business sub-team for Saline Singularity in FIRST Robotics Competition.

Saline Singularity robotics team met today, and week 3 focused on its “business” as much as anything else

January 26, 2019
As the clock approached nine this morning, several members of FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Team 5066 had already started arriving. In several instances, coffee mugs in hand. Someone had thoughtfully brought two boxes of fresh donut holes. [1,2] Other than having meeting space in one of the Saline High School CTE program classrooms, populated here by students, sub-team leads, and mentors, this Saline Singularity gathering could have passed for any other mainstream business meeting. It’s ....

[1-4] With movie theaters easily cited as poster-child for impact of fears that motivated patrons to persue online alternatives and emergency powers leveraged by government to lock their doors, Washtenaw Economic Club invited Paul Glantz to speak before its May 2022 Luncheon. [5-8] As co-founder and chairman of Michigan-based Emagine Entertainment, Mr Glantz spoke yesterday on “Key Success Factors ....

It’s worth taking a step back to assess annual Saline mayor’s “Senior Conference” as much more than sum of offerings

June 18, 2019
Unlike other signature Michigan events like the Governor’s Conference on Tourism — perhaps more accurately labeled as a Mayors’ event — the Saline Senior Conference has come about under the aegis of only one mayor. [1,2] This is significant to understanding the role and importance of such an offering to any community in 2019. At heart, it serves as a predictable, accountable touchstone for residents in of this population to “engage directly” with their city officials, ....

Signs of the times: Should Pittsfield Township spend up to $27,000 to stake out identity with another “Gateway Sign”?

April 10, 2019
Item 11.1 on the Supervisor portion of March 27, 2019 Pittsfield Township Trustee meeting agenda read: “Approve the design and purchase of a Gateway Sign from Signs By Crannie, Dexter Block, and Teal Bird Designs, LLC, respectively, for a total cost not to exceed $27,000.00.” [1] On the surface, the word “sign” seems simple enough — especially when it comes to supporting motorists’ interest in navigating travel from here to there. More particularly, they serve ....
