'A big thanks goes out to Lenawee Fuels for allowing use of their property for the (annual Dog Daze) event'

This year, the Tecumseh Area Chamber of Commerce had a condensed version of Dog Daze in downtown Tecumseh during Sidewalk Sales. 

Although the event was on a smaller scale, people still enjoyed bringing their pets out for the parade.  We got some great suggestions for next year. 

‘My legacy will be that this old lady fought to keep Veterans Memorial Park as it is — a safe place and a site to reflect and remember’

To have a tank or not to tank. The Memorial Park has been in existence for almost 100 years. For 83 of those years the Pratt-Hicks family have lived on Brown Street. The front of the park was designed to honor the veterans and faces U.S. 12.

‘How long do I give Tecumseh to guinea pig the education of my upcoming second and fourth grade students? It is sad to feel you are being pushed out of your own community’

I am writing today to thank the Tecumseh Herald for their ongoing reporting and criticism of the happenings within the Tecumseh School District. I am one of the parents that signed the petition. I live, work, and attend church in the district.

'TPS failure to compromise brought about push for recall'

If all goes as planned by a group of local parents, voters in the Tecumseh Public School district will likely have the option to choose an entirely new school board in November. It was not something the parents wanted to do.

‘Promoting the conservation measures that farmers are implementing is a story that isn’t told enough’

It’s been an extremely challenging and stressful spring in southeast Michigan but when the dust settles farmers are amazing.  We are constantly amazed at the efficiency of today’s farmers. 

‘Those of us who lived through the Red Mill Pond dam ordeal in real time know that the city was indeed helpful; until the point that it might involve any major capital outlay’

First of all, let me say that I detest battling letters to the editor and understand that they seldom paint either party in a good light.  But I feel I must respond to Kevin Welch’s letter published in the June 21st issue of The Tecumseh Herald, so I will write one (and only one) rebuttal.

‘The City of Tecumseh willingly agreed to be a paying member of the [Red Mill Pond Dam Special] Assessment District’

Published by Tecumseh Herald on Thu, 06/21/2018 - 11:30am

While I had great respect for Dan [Hacker] and his support of Tecumseh while I was the City Manager, Dan’s comments in the letter to the editor [June 14, Tecumseh Herald] are not accurate and leave out much of what the City of Tecumseh did, along with the City Council, City Attorney Scott Baker a

‘The City of Tecumseh made it very clear that the only people that benefited from the dam remaining were the adjacent property owners’

It was refreshing to read Mr. Dan Hacker’s “accurate” letter in June 14th’s Tecumseh Herald regarding Red Mill Pond’s Special Assessment. I own the property that was mentioned and pictured in the June 7 Herald. Yet, no one from the Herald contacted me?

‘Because of their invaluable participation, the Kiwanis Club is able to help the youth of our community’

Once again, Tecumseh area businesses have stepped up to give needed support for the Tecumseh Kiwanis Club’s annual Gourmet Nuts sale.  Because of their invaluable participation, the Kiwanis Club is able to help the youth of our community with many worthy projects.  This years sa

‘The absence of these stories is a bit disheartening’

The Herald hasn’t had any coverage of the school sports season since early May. The Varsity Baseball and Boys Lacrosse teams had phenomenal seasons. I’m sure other teams had noteworthy seasons and performances as well.
