SUMMARY:Ann Arbor families invited to free event to jump-start college savings\, take advantage of bonus offer
DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor families invited to free event to jump-start college savings\, take advantage of bonus offer\nFamilies can start saving for college with a 529 account for as little as $25 and get additional money with a bonus based on their initial contribution amount \nLANSING — The Michigan Department of Treasury is inviting Ann Arbor families to attend a free community information and enrollment session to learn how to start saving for college with as little as $25 ­— and receive a new enrollment bonus. \nThe free community informational event hosted by the Department of Treasury’s Section 529 college savings plans will take place from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday\, March 25\, at the Pittsfield Library\, 2359 Oak Valley Drive\, Ann Arbor. Attendees can drop in at any time during the session to receive one-on-one help on Michigan’s two 529 college savings plans: the Michigan Education Trust (MET) and the Michigan Education Savings Program (MESP). No appointment is necessary. \nMET is the state’s 529 prepaid tuition savings program\, allowing families to purchase college tuition at today’s rates. MESP is an investment-based savings plan offering flexible options for families. \nBoth programs are administered by the Michigan Department of Treasury. \nMET will offer an in-person enrollment session bonus of $100 per beneficiary (for initial contributions of $25-$499) or $200 (for initial contributions of $500-plus). To be eligible for the bonus\, you must attend an in-person 2026 spring enrollment session. The initial qualifying contribution must be made in one payment. For bonus eligibility requirements\, visit the MET website. \nThe opportunity for the bonus made starting a MET for her son even more appealing for Annette Zurack\, a digital specialist for the State of Michigan. \n“I had been meaning to sign up for a while\, but when I found out that MET was offering bonuses at the event\, it was too good to pass up\,” said Zurack\, who is planning on attending the Ann Arbor session. “My mother-in-law opened an MESP account for my son and I wanted to pair that with a MET so we could maximize the benefits. This way we lock in current tuition rates\, qualify for a bonus and give my son every advantage toward a college education and a bright future.” \nRepresentatives from MET and MESP will be on hand to discuss the features and benefits of each plan and offer general tips to educate parents\, grandparents and others on saving for college. \nThe session provides an opportunity for families to learn more about MET and take advantage of MET’s $25 minimum contribution. \n“Education costs can seem intimidating\, even when college feels a long way off\,” said Megan Patino\, the new executive director of Michigan Education Trust. “But planning early can make a huge difference. Programs like MET help families turn long-term dreams into a manageable plan and give parents confidence that their child’s future opportunities stay within reach.” \nWhile no registration is required\, more information for the Ann Arbor event is available here. Families can drop by anytime during the session hours. \nEvent highlights:\n\nLearn: Experts will explain how MET and MESP work and the benefits of each program.\nSave: Families can take advantage of MET’s in-person enrollment bonus after opening a contract with a contribution of at least $25.\nPlan: Personalized advice on savings strategies and contribution options will be available.\n\nSince its inception in 1988\, MET has helped more than 105\,000 students by providing a reliable way to save for future education expenses. Over its 38-year history\, MET has come to be recognized as one of the more successful prepaid tuition savings plans in the nation. \n“One of the great things about MET is that it supports many different education paths after high school\,” Patino said. “It can be used at Michigan public universities\, community colleges as well as private or out-of-state schools. It can also support skilled trades\, apprenticeships and other career training programs. Education takes many forms today\, and MET reflects that reality.” \nFamilies interested in opening a MET account or learning more about the program can visit MET’s website. \nAbout MET \nMET is Michigan’s Section 529 prepaid tuition savings program that allows the purchase of future tuition at today’s rates. The total contract price is eligible for a state tax deduction and earnings are tax-exempt if used for qualified higher education expenses. MET funds can also be used to pay out-of-state and Michigan private college and university tuition\, and credits can also be transferred to other eligible family members. \n  \nAbout MESP \nMESP is Michigan’s direct-sold Section 529 college savings plan that offers families various investment options. It also provides Michigan taxpayers a state income tax deduction on contributions and potential tax-free growth on any earnings if account proceeds are used to pay for qualified higher education expenses. MESP can be used at any eligible college\, university or trade school in the nation and some abroad. Qualified higher education expenses include tuition\, fees\, room\, board\, books\, equipment and supplies required for enrollment. Limitations apply. See the MESP Disclosure Booklet for details.

DESCRIPTION:Salem Area Historical Society \n  \n\nWednesday\, March 25 @ 7pm — Salem Township Hall\, 9600 Six Mile Road\n\nSPEAKER: David Carleton: Belle Isle Boathouse \nAt the end of the SAHS membership Meeting\, there will be a presentation by David Carleton\, a vocal supporter of saving the boathouse and the lead developer of the $30 million-$35 million public-private project that would restore the Belle Isle Boathouse.   \n  \nThis new development would create a new welcome center for the Detroit River island\, opening it to the public with a new marina and boating options\, restaurants\, restored event space and expanded areas for nonprofit rowing and sailing programs.   \n  \nThe Detroit Boat Club\, a private club with facilities on Belle Isle starting in 1891\, built the current boathouse in 1902.

The city purchased the facility in 1996 when the Detroit Boat Club organization moved out of Detroit. \nWebsite:  https://sahshistory.org/ \nFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Salem-Area-Historical-Society/124128277610297 \nPhone (248) 486-0669

SUMMARY:Salem Area Historical Society - Presentation on Feb 25th at 7pm by Charlie Shelton from Huron Clinton Metroparks on the French and the Fur Trade in the 1700s ‘New France’ area that is now the State of MI
DESCRIPTION:Salem Area Historical Society \n  \n\nWednesday\, February 25 @ 7pm — Salem Township Hall\, 9600 Six Mile Road\n\nSPEAKER: Charlie Shelton: French and the Fur Trade \nAfter a SAHS membership Meeting\, there will be a presentation by Charlie Shelton from Huron Clinton Metroparks on the French and the Fur Trade in the 1700s ‘New France’ area that is now the State of Michigan.   \n  \nThe nearly forgotten French period of Michigan history helped to frame our modern life. Michigan’s cultural heritage is deeply influenced in many of our French place names\, foods\, and daily lives.  \n  \nWhat was life like in 1700s ‘New France’? Let’s examine this dynamic time period: the people\, the furs\, the culture\, and the commerce of 1750 Fort Michilimackinac. \n  \nIn 1715 French soldiers constructed Fort Michilimackinac.  This fortified community became the great fur trade center of the Northwest until its relocation to nearby Mackinac Island in 1781.  It was here where fur traders and Indians rendezvoused\, French and British officers organized war parties and explorers began their journeys into the vast western unknown. \n  \n  \nSincerely\,\nTerry Cwik\, \nPresident\, Salem Area Historical Society\nP.O. Box 75011 \nSalem\, MI 48175\n\nWebsite:  https://sahshistory.org/ \nFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Salem-Area-Historical-Society/124128277610297 \nPhone (248) 486-0669

SUMMARY:Braver Angels Reflects on the Future of the American Presidency
DESCRIPTION:Braver Angels Reflects on the Future of the American Presidency \n The American presidency has grown more powerful\, more visible\, and more contested than at any point in history.  Presidents are expected to act decisively in moments of crisis\, govern effectively amid congressional gridlock\, and serve as both political leaders and unifying figures in a deeply polarized nation. \nAt the same time\, concerns are growing across the political spectrum. How much power should one person hold? What safeguards are necessary to protect liberty and accountability? When emergencies never seem to end\, how should democratic oversight function? And can the presidency still unite the country—or does it risk intensifying our divisions? \nThe Braver Angels Alliance of Washtenaw County invites community members of all political views to a meaningful conversation about the future of the Office of the Presidency.  This is not a debate about specific presidents or political parties.  Rather\, we will have a forward-looking exploration of the office itself. Participants will engage in structured\, small-group dialogues to examine today’s debates about the nature of the office and how it might evolve.  Join us on Tuesday\, February 24th\, 2026\, from 6-8pm\, at Sam Hill Restaurant. \n“This event is designed for anyone who cares about our system of government and the stability of our institutions\, regardless of their political leanings\,” says Ed Karls\, event coordinator. “We aren’t looking for experts; we’re looking for people willing to listen\, reflect\, and engage in good faith.” \nEvent Details: \n\n\nWhen: Tuesday\, February 24th\, 2026\, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM \n\n\nWhere: Sam Hill Restaurant\, 5827 Jackson Road\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48103 \n\n\nRSVP: No registration is required. \n\n\nAbout Braver Angels: \nBraver Angels is leading the nation’s largest cross-partisan\, volunteer-led movement to bridge the partisan divide and strengthen our democratic republic. The Washtenaw County Alliance works locally to foster respectful dialogue and find common ground among citizens across the political spectrum.

SUMMARY:4pm: Come say hi to Santa as he paddles on the Huron River on Christmas Eve... Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays one and all!
DESCRIPTION:Bandemer Park  1352 Lake Shore Dr. Ann Arbor\, MI 48104\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice:\nFree\nTime:\n4:00 PM\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCome say hi to Santa as he paddles on the Huron River on Christmas Eve… Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays one and all. It’s once again time for our annual tradition on Christmas Eve. Bring the kids to see Santa and his doggie helper elves Jake and Boo paddle their fully decorated vintage 1930’s Christmas canoe\, complete with a lit Christmas tree as they paddle down the Huron River (Ann Arbor) just below Barton dam and ending at Argo Pond at the Ann Arbor Rowers dock. For safety reasons\, this will be a weather-dependent event. If the river is extremely icy\, or if it’s windy we may have to alter or scratch the event. But we are hoping for good (mild) weather conditions. So find yourself a nice spot to watch\, bundle the kids up\, and bring a thermos full of cheer. This is Santa’s last chance to play before hooking up his reindeer (dog team) to his magic flying voyageur canoe to drop presents to all the kids of the world.\n\nWHERE TO SEE SANTA IN HIS CANOEThis event will take place in and along the banks of the Huron River in Ann Arbor. The plan is to put in his canoe below Barton dam just near the footbridge across the Huron (great viewing platform and good parking) Other great viewing spots would be the foot bridge over the Huron\, on the walkway over the Argo dam\, the observation dock at Argo\, the bridge between the pond\, or across the river where the crewers paddle. We hope to paddle the length of the river from just below Barton Dam to the dock at the Ann Arbor Rowing Club. There are many places to pull-off and view Santa from the road\, trails\, or overhead on one of the footbridges crossing over the river.\n\nThe festivities begin around 4pm. (Sunset is right around 5pm.) Santa will have his canoe decorated with lights as well he’ll have a fully lit Christmas tree in his canoe. If the weather is good\, he’ll be joined by his trusty team of Christmas border collies Big Jake and Little Boo. If conditions permit we’ll do our best to have some time for kids to meet and talk to Santa at the Barton Dam put in or the dock at Bandemer Park.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual “A2 INVITATIONAL CARPENTRY COMPETITION” December 11th at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual “A2 INVITATIONAL CARPENTRY COMPETITION”\nDecember 11th at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds\n \nNow in its second year\, the A2 Invitational Carpentry Competition has picked up momentum as the only event of its kind in Washtenaw County. The competition allows high school students in Ann Arbor\, Saline\, Dexter\, Milan\, and the vicinity to find career opportunities to learn valuable skills in an industry in desperate need for talent – home building.  This competition serves as an important step to earning more respect for the skilled trade professions by younger generations. \nOn Thursday\, December 11\, 2025\, the Ann Arbor Student Building Industry Program (AASBIP) will host this event at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds\, 5055 Ann Arbor-Saline Road\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48103. This judged event will run from 8am to 3pm. \nThe event\, spearheaded by AASBIP Lead Instructor Mark Valchine II\, will help the students prepare for the prestigious annual SkillsUSA Competition. Several of the program’s students plan on competing for Regional\, State\, and hopefully National recognition at the SkillsUSA Carpentry Competition in spring of 2026. \nSkills USA offers medals\, scholarships\, tool prizes\, and even apprenticeships and job offers from firms in attendance. Students value the opportunity as a confidence builder and source of pride and motivation to succeed and pursue greater knowledge and skills. \nThe Skills USA contest includes: \n\nFraming walls (wood and/or steel studs)\nCutting and installing rafters\, gable end overhangs\, fascia board and soffits\, sheathing and/or exterior siding and trim\nStair construction\n\nCompetitors will be judged on accuracy\, ability to read and interpret blueprints\, workmanship\, safety\, and the proper use of tools\, equipment\, and materials. \nA broader goal for the AASBIP is to provide pathways to careers in the home building industry. Surveys show a significant interest by “Gen Z” in skilled trade careers\, offering higher paying wages\, less educational costs up-front\, and less vulnerability to emerging AI displacement. (The computer isn’t going to dig a foundation or frame a house any time soon!) \nAbout 30 students from Ann Arbor’s High Schools graduate from the AASBIP every year. This year\, “Team 56” is hard at work on the largest home ever constructed by a high school building program. \nThe Ann Arbor Student Building Industry Program was founded in 1970\, and builds a new home every year. This is a program endorsed and overseen by the Ann Arbor Public Schools Board\, and administered by the AASBIP volunteer Board of Directors. \nThe Ann Arbor Student Building Industry Program is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit.
