1600 Toys for 1600 Girls and Boys Christmas gift collection

Twelfth Annual “1600 Toys For 1600 Girls And Boys” Donation Drive Is Underway And Needs Your Support

November 7, 2018

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 ....

How You Shop Determines Where You Shop (and Retailers Notice)

August 23, 2017

Just before summer began, The New York Times ran a feature article that said American retail had reached a historic “tipping point.” As proof, they went on to note how demand for once prime direct-to-customer sales space was being replaced by signed leases for properties serving online order fulfillment centers.
