Sunday scrimmage completes a busy weekend.

About 250 people were in attendance at the Saturday night event.
Each year since its inception three years ago, the local Democratic Spring Gala has grown. This year, the Northville, Plymouth, Livonia, Community and West Oakland Democratic Clubs met Saturday night at the Meadowbrook Country Club in Northville.

I can’t believe that Woodside would show her face in Northville Township Politics after here last incomplete run as Township Supervisor. During her tenure as Supervisor she failed the people by not even completing her first 4 years as Supervisor. Now she is asking for the community to elect her as Treasurer.
