Recently, the Rotary Club of Saline funded the construction of a pavilion at Henne Field in the City of Saline. Now, the pavilion has been completed with the addition of six picnic tables.
Brian Puffer, Director of Saline Community Education, said the Friends of Henne Field purchased the tables for the pavilion.
The tables make the pavilion a nice place for an afternoon picnic in the heart of Saline. One can buy lunch at a downtown restaurant and walk to Henne Field. They're also a great place to watch the little league ball games that take place at the park.
Henne Field is owned by Saline Area Schools and open to the public. You can access Henne Field from Bennett Street, where there is a parking lot, or from Owen's Place, a short street off North Harris Street. You can also access the walking path accessible off North Ann Arbor Street, on the northern side of the Union School property.
Henne Field was gifted to Saline Area Schools by the Henne family in 1948 in memory of its patriarch Edward Henne.

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.
