FestiFools 2026 "Back to the FOOLture"
April 12th, 2026 4-5pm
Main Street, Downtown Ann Arbor
20 years ago, FestiFools exploded onto Ann Arbor’s Main Street with enormous kinetic papier-mâché sculptures created by a joyous collaboration of students and community members. Time sure flies when you’re having (Foolish) fun! Come help us celebrate "Back to the FOOLture", where we'll reconstruct our past, present, and FOOLture with bizarro, street-sized Puppets created and animated by U-M students and community members! Make a crazy costume, bring an old pan to bang on, or just come as you are, to help celebrate the 20th Annual FestiFools Spectacle on Main Street in downtown Ann Arbor! This not-2-B-missed one-hour only event starts at 4pm sharp!

Partly Cloudy , with a high of 37 and low of 16 degrees. Sunny during the morning, light freezing rain in the afternoon, overcast in the evening, clear overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
