Tonight was the 34th Annual City of Dearborn Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony and Sing-Along

A very fun community and family event.

We had a special guest student from the Dearborn Schools light the official tree tonight!

Today was the annual Empty Bowls fundraiser put on by the Dearborn Public Schools Art Department.

It benefits those in need and who are hungry during the holiday season.

This is the 28th year of the event – always an enjoyable time for a great cause!

We spent some time today visiting with some local heroes when we donated new toys and a Christmas tree to the Firefighters Burn Drive.

The Burn Drive brightens the holiday season for children and families in need by providing these items to local community members. They’re always looking for more donations….

Giving does good and it feels good 👍

This morning the Healthy Dearborn Coalition met in the ASC board room of the Dearborn Public Schools.

The Coalition heard from Joshua Bain, the SFE General Manager tasked with providing healthier lunches to all DPS students.

Additionally, our action teams met to formalize plans and strategies.

Specifically, our Inclusive Health Committee will also be meeting tonight with the City of Dearborn Recreation department in an effort to institute physical activity programs for individuals with special needs.

Students started the basketball unit for the new card marking at Edsel Ford.
