Patriotic celebration

The Haunted Annex at Newburg United Methodist Church in Livonia raises money for missions. The walk-through attraction won't open this Halloween season because of fire hazards.

Sen. Patrick Colbeck, R-Canton, observes Constitution Month with members of the Sarah Ann Cochrane Chap­ ter of the Daughters of the American Revolution at the Plymouth District Library. Members rang the bells of freedom and recited parts of the U.S. Constitution. The Sarah Cochrane Chapter of the DAR was founded in 1926 and consists of nearly 60 members from Plymouth and Northville. They meet monthly from September-June. For Fire hazards more information, call Marie Pleuss at (248) 437-1954 or e-mail to [email protected].
