If you’re looking for something to do tomorrow while you’re waiting for the Superbowl to start, consider stopping by the Heritage & History Center in Farmington Hills.
Starting with a ribbon cutting at noon, the afternoon will feature HHC Director Brian Golden giving two, half-hour “Farmington Junction” presentations, which highlight the light rail mass transit system that once linked Farmington with Detroit and points north. He will speak following the ribbon cutting and again at 3 p.m. Hammered dulcimer music will fill the air from 1-3 p.m., and light refreshments will also be provided to make this a very special event. Admission is always free; contributions are always welcome.

What a wonderful event. “History in the making”,
Brian emotionally expressed to me. We are so thankful and proud to finally have a place to gather to celebrate our community heritage. Many thanks to this great man, his abundant knowledge, passion & commitment. It was terrific to see so many come together to celebrate the
Heritage & History Center’s big day!
Diane, we are all history in the making. The things you do and we do, truly makes our town a community. It was very emotional for me to see you and all the many people come together to celebrate our history. Many I have known and others who came out to see what was happening for the first time. The best quote came from Masha Silver in the Oakland Press article today: http://theoaklandpress.com/articles/2009/02/02/news/local_news/doc4986c4c9d4f7f182981889.txt
Silver, who had served on the city’s parks and recreation board, spoke of how the house was a subject of many residents’ dream over the years. “This is what they wanted to do with the house,” she said. “I’m happy, so happy. A lot of people wanted this”
Thank you for your support. You are the real meaning of this “community project”
Brian
