events: Plymouth MI Ice Festival Wrap Up - 01/27/09 04:44 PM
The 2009 Plymouth International Ice Sculpture Spectacular is a wrap! Warmer weather on Friday probably worried organizers, but cold weather was back on Saturday....and so were the crowds! The local economy had an impact as there were fewer ice sculptures, particularly in front of local merchants. Also missing this year were the live reindeer. Here's some photos showing the highlights: This Saturday, January 31st is Northville MI 4th Annual Fire & Ice Festival running from Noon to 4 PM.

events: Get Set for the 27th Plymouth MI Ice Sculpture Spectacular - 01/21/09 10:54 PM
If it's going to stay as cold as it is this year, we might as well enjoy an event that celebrates it. The Plymouth MI Ice Sculpture Spectacular comes to Kellogg Park in Downtown Plymouth this weekend. Starting at Noon on Friday, January 27th and running through Sunday, January 29th, the event features ice carvers from local high schools, colleges, and professionals from around the United States and some from as far away as Japan. Over 100 sculptures are expected to be carved, mostly from single blocks of ice weighing over 300 pounds. Several sculptures will be constructed using between

events: Downtown Halloween Festivities - 10/30/08 08:56 PM
The streets of Downtown Plymouth were blocked off tonight for the The Great Pumpkin Caper. Between 3,000-4,000 kids lined the streets to trick-or-treat from store to store. Special awards were given for the best costume, but ... the pumpkin princess pups got my vote! Meanwhile, Downtown Northville hosts Rock 'O Ween tomorrow evening from 3-6 PM in the Downtown Square followed by trick-or-treating in the City.

events: Plymouth's Chili Cook-off Serves Up Crowds - 10/06/08 12:34 AM
The 13th Annual Great Lakes Regional Chili Cook-off and Motorcycle Show took over Downtown Plymouth, Michigan on Sunday, October 5th. Sponsored by Motor City Harley-Davidson, the event featured live entertainment, a dog costume contest, children's activities, and performances from area dancers. Under sunny skies, the large crowd included nearly 6,000 bikers with their bikes lining several downtown streets and filling the parking lots. With all the leather in town, it was hard to tell the lawyer bikers from the true blue bikers. Speaking of true blue bikers, check out the Big Blue bike to the right which

events: Highlights from the 2008 Victorian Festival - 10/04/08 10:17 PM
Although the rain cancelled many Saturday activities, it didn't dampen spirits. This year's Victorian Festival in Northville was enjoyed by many, including those decked out in their Victorian finest. I particularly enjoyed see the vintage baseball game featuring the Northville Eclipse against the Greenfield Village's Lah-De-Dahs. A kinder, gentler game played without gloves, I was surprised to learn these two teams are just a few of the many in a vintage baseball league. Mill Race Village was in full swing with lots to see and do as the Basket Guild demonstrated basket weaving, the Country Store sold their wares, school was
