January 9, 2019
Last Saturday, the symbolic starter pistol was fired at 10:30am sharp, starting the six-week clock for high school teams to build custom robots for 2019 FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC).

It isn’t clear if any particular place has been designated for visitor parking, nor, for that matter, if there’s much demand for one. In all the years that we’ve looked in on it, however, we’ve never found grass or grounds lacking in very attentive care. Quite matter-of-factly, a sign designates it as “Judd Cemetery,” further noting that it was formally ....

Scheduled for Sunday, June 10 from 3:00pm to 8:00pm (rain or shine) at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds, here are some admittedly unfairly tempting details about what’s in store for you.
