Saline Meals on Wheels (MOW) is a partnership between Saline Evangelical Home (EVH) and Saline Area Senior Center (SASC). EVH prepares and packages the meals and SASC administers the program, taking care of payments and scheduling. MOW is privately funded.
MOW provides nutritious meals to residents in the Saline Area School District who are generally homebound or have limitations in regard to cooking.
Currently, the program has two delivery routes with volunteer drivers bringing their meals to the clients. In the past year, the Meals on Wheels clientele has grown significantly, leading SASC to create a third route.
The program is seeking several community members to volunteer as a MOW driver one day a week, about 1-2 hours a day, to help deliver these meals. Volunteers will be trained with a current MOW driver and a brief orientation with Kathy Adamson, Meals on Wheels Administrator. If you are interested, please contact Kathy at Saline Area Senior Center at 734.429.9274 or adamsonk@salineschools.org.

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.
