On November 1st, the Dalton family of Tecumseh suffered a devastating fire at their home on Allen road. A family emergency meant that none of the family members, not even their dog, was home at the time of the fire. Very little remains of the home and its contents.
The Dalton family members are part of Covenant Presbyterian Church in Tecumseh. To benefit the family, the church congregation is holding a Cookie Walk fundraiser. Shoppers will walk around the tables and choose from a large selection of homemade cookies and treats. The cost is $7.00 per pound cash or check.
The Cookie Walk will be held on Sunday, December 11, 11am to 3pm or until the cookies are gone. The public is invited and encouraged to attend the event.

Overcast, with a high of 72 and low of 62 degrees. Overcast in the morning, patchy rain nearby during the afternoon, overcast in the evening, light rain shower overnight.
Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
