Witches Night Out

Something wicked this way comes tomorrow in Fenton. Witches Night Out will take place downtown from 5-9pm. Dress as your favorite spellcaster as you wind your way through the streets of Fenton, visiting the merchants for great sales, prizes and treats. Support the Fenton Firefighter Charities by “stuffing the boot” before you end your night.

The Fenton Museum will be handing out free shopping bags while supplies last, so get there early and then stop by Fenton’s Open Book and pick up a copy of “Haunted Flint” and get it signed by the authors.

Taking part in the event for the first time is the Cause & Affect Gallery. Artists will be conducting demonstrations of their crafts. Those featured will be David Barber and Paul Wizynajtys from Man-In-The-Moon Metalworks in the studio working on pierced metal creations, and Linda Whiting will be on-hand to create “personality” sketches in the gallery. Patrons will be able to interact with the artists and refreshments will be provided in the form of wine, cider, and hors d’oeuvres. Enter your name at the gallery for the chance to win creative prizes.

Kick-off the Halloween season this year at the Witches Night Out in Fenton!

Community to the CoreFor generations, Almar Orchards has grown more than apples — it has grown family traditions, community connections and memories

Everyone has roots. Traditions, communities and families connect us to time, place and one another. They stabilize us and offer comfort. Autumn reminds us of this every year through sweet treats, warm drinks and looking inward toward one another as the world seems to slow down. Almar Orchards is much the same. From its organic
