TAYLOR
— The 19th annual “Turn off the Violence” family picnic at Heritage Park is Thursday
Sept. 26.
Hosted
by the Taylor Rotary, the event begins at 4 p.m., next to the chapel, at the
park, located near the corner of Pardee and North Line.
The
event’s aim is letting children know that there are other activities besides
watching violent television shows, movies or video games.
Members
of the Taylor Fire Department with the aerial truck will be on hand to share
fire safety information. Other special guests will include the Taylor Police
Canine Unit, Ronald McDonald and volunteers providing support group
information, among others.
Activities
will include youth golf lessons, face painting and crafts, while the Taylor
West Band and Chorus will perform.
The
picnic will include hot dogs, chips, pop and other items.
The
Rotary’s most recent event, its 19th annual golf outing, raised $30,000 last
month to benefit groups in the community like the Downriver Fish & Loaves,
Christy’s Legacy of Hope, the Junior League World Series and Taylor Reading
Corps.
Anyone
interested in being a part of the Taylor Rotary may call Dave Hamilton at
1-313-378-3842 or Michelle Matley at 1-734-362-7009.
