Clinton Twp. to have one early voting site BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Michigan auto workers deserve “fair

wages and greater stability” but their jobs could soon collapse because of a government-backed shift to electric vehicles, former President Donald Trump warned in a speech Sept. 27 in Clinton Township. “Your current negotiations don’t

mean as much as you think” because “in two to three years you will not have one job in this state,” Trump said in the speech at Drake Enterprises, near Gratiot Avenue and Hall Road. His remarks were aimed at strik-

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Communities across Macomb County are deciding where they will host early voting for the 2024 election season, and only one site will serve Clinton Township’s nearly 100,000 residents next year. A smaller-than usual Board of Trustees featuring only four members voted unanimously on a resolution to make Clinton Township Hall on Romeo Plank Road the only early voting site in Michigan’s most populated township on the evening of Sept. 18. “There was a lot of discussion in my office about where these locations should be placed, and given the fact it is such a new endeavor and there’s a lot of costs associated that the state is not willing to compensate, we decided this would be the best location to roll this project out for the presidential primary, which is going to be held Feb. 27,” said clerk Kim Meltzer. Meltzer told trustees there would be educational information put out by her office in the lead-up to the February primaries and explained the early voting process. “Once the voter puts that ballot in the tabulator … it is tabulated,” Meltzer said. “It doesn’t mean we know the answer, we don’t get any results at that point. However, what it does mean is that voters will not be able to change their mind.” By having the vote tabulated and received in the same way an election day in-person vote is, ear-

FRASER — Fraser’s first responders and city officials are inviting the public to join them for the annual Fraser Open House. The open house will allow residents to meet

with those in their city government as well as their fire and police services. “This will be the 35th annual Fraser Open House,” said Capt. John Gillies, the Fire Division supervisor. “It was started by the Fire Department but we’ve been working with the Parks and Rec Department to involve as many other departments

and stakeholder organizations as possible in recent years.” The open house will be free to attend and will take place at the Department of Public Safety and City Hall, located at 33000 Garfield Road. Director of Public Safety Samantha Kretzschmar said it See OPEN HOUSE on page 6A

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Erin Terina Maria Patton lived for 16 days. Born on Sept. 18, 2001, Tammy and Cliff Patton’s fourth child and first daughter had a number of complications. “When I was pregnant with her, they saw on the ultrasound that she had a heart condition, which was cushion canal defect,” Tammy said. “It’s a hole in the child’s heart, usually seen with Down syndrome children.” As time went on, more problems were discovered. Erin had pulmonary atresia, an enlarged heart and severe valve leakage, leading her to be transferred from St. John Hospital to Children’s Hospital of Detroit for surgery. There was little chance of success, but her parents elected to go ahead with it anyway. “Our only other option was to take her off of medication that was keeping the hole open to keep her alive,” Tammy said. As Erin was taken to Children’s Hospital via the Panda Ambulance, Tammy was given a stuffed bear wearing an EMS unit shirt. Another bear was given as Erin was taken into surgery on Oct. 2, and more

Chippewa Valley edges rival Macomb Dakota 28-21 in MAC Red showdown BY JONATHAN SZCZEPANIAK jszczepaniak@candgnews.com

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — A beautiful yet fierce rivalry between two Macomb Area Conference Red rivals was put on hold momentarily when Clinton Township Chippewa Valley hosted Macomb Dakota on Sept. 22. Chippewa Valley held their cancer awareness game with not only the players and student section sporting purple, but with a touching tribute. With the players lined up on the field, the announcer went player by player and named who they were playing for or in memory of. Some players embraced the person they were playing for with a hug while others stood silent in memory. Once the opening kickoff took place, it was all business for Chippewa Valley as they bested Dakota 28-21, earning their first win against Dakota since 2019. Chippewa Valley also snapped Dakota’s 17-game regular season win streak, which was two days away from hitting the two-year mark. As the fourth quarter came to a close and fans stormed the field, it was evident for Chippewa Valley how much this game meant for them. “This is personal. This is everything for us,” senior Jordan Byers said. “We had no other option (than) to win. It’s been years,

years and years. Coach (Scott) Merchant deserves it, and we had to give it to him.” Byers, along with senior Cash Shaw, were the Dakota defense’s kryptonite throughout the game, especially Shaw. With three minutes left in the fourth quarter and holding a 20-14 lead, Chippewa Valley attempted to drain the clock as they had done efficiently all game. Shaw had other plans as he ripped off a 54-yard touchdown run to give Chippewa Valley the 28-14 lead. Shaw finished with 12 carries for 101 yards on the night. Dakota junior quarterback Jadon Ford would connect with senior wide receiver Keleb Pritchard, who tallied seven receptions for 96 yards in the loss, for a 14-yard touchdown catch to cut the lead to seven with a minute left, but Dakota was unsuccessful on the onside kick attempt. Byers opened up the scoring for Chippewa Valley on a 17-yard touchdown run up the middle on third down to take an early 7-0 lead in the first. Byers said the offense liked what they saw from the Dakota defense on third down to execute the run play. “We thought we could run,” Byers said. “We’d been working on it, and we’d seen what we liked, and we ran it.” Dakota junior running back Ethan Hamby put Dakota on the board with a 59-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter. Hamby finished with 74 yards rushing and two touchdowns on the ground in the loss. While Chippewa Valley senior quarterback Andrew Schuster’s only touchdown on the night came on an 8-yard run, Schuster See FOOTBALL on page 13A

Scares, stories and anniversaries at the CMPL

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — As October gets into full swing, the Clinton-Macomb Public Library will host all sorts of events. Students in grades 2-12 are invited to the South Branch on Saturday, Oct. 7, to learn about insects with the Huron-Clinton Metroparks Mobile Learning Center. The CMPL will celebrate Halloween at the Main Branch on Wednesday, Oct. 25, with its annual Monsters and Mayhem event. The party starts at 5:30 p.m. and families are encouraged to turn out for treats, crafts, stories and more. Costumes are encouraged. Festivities will keep rolling on at the Main Branch into Thursday, Oct. 26, as the library celebrates its 20th anniversary. Visitors to the library that day can receive a cookie (while supplies last) and activities for children begin at 11 a.m. Those looking to get some free library merchandise can go on the hunt for 20 pictures hidden around the Main Branch that document the building’s history, or they can register for a library card if not already signed up. An event on Monday, Oct. 30, will be dedicated to the macabre and mysterious. Researcher Amberrose Hammond will present a program on Mysterious Michigan at the Main Branch at 7 p.m. Topics include the Nain Rouge monster, Minnie Quay’s ghost and other supernatural subjects from around the Great Lakes state.

FRASER-CLINTON CHRONICLE • OCTOBER 4, 2023

FRASER TO HOST TRIO OF HALLOWEEN EVENTS FRASER — Fraser is getting into the spooky spirit with some fun upcoming Halloween-themed events. First will be Fraser Family Fun Day on Saturday, Oct. 7. It will feature a trunk-or-treat for families behind the Lions Club Hall, located at 34540 Utica Road, followed by a concert. “The trunk-or-treat is from 2-5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 7. The band, The Hazel Love Band, will start playing at 5 p.m.,” said Nicole Zimmerman, the Fraser Lions Club treasurer and the event’s co-chair. “After 5 p.m., there will be a cash bar. If the weather is bad, it will be moved indoors. We will have hot dogs for sale.” It will be the third year the Fraser Lions have hosted such an event. “There is no cost for the trunkor-treat but for the portion at 5 p.m., there is a $5 cover charge for the concert,” said Zimmerman. “Parking will be at the (skating) rink next door. This is the third time we’ve done this event.

It started a few years ago when Fraser Parks and Recreation tried to get something going. They were having trouble, so we stepped in to try and keep it going.” She said the day should be great fun for those looking to enjoy the fall. “If you are coming to the trunkor-treat, it is a great community event,” said Zimmerman. “They do this out of the goodness of their heart. It gives them a free space in daylight instead of sending kids out at night. For the other portion, it’s a great chance to enjoy the last bits of nice weather before that snow comes.” The Fraser Public Library will host its own trunk-or-treat at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 28, at its temporary location at 15260 15 Mile Road. “It usually lasts about an hour and a half or until people run out of candy,” said Kristen Getzin, the programming and youth services librarian. “If people want to pass out candy, we ask that they register with us on our website. Normally, the event calendar is registration for participants, but this time

it’s for those who want to participate by giving out the candy. If people just want to come to get candy, they don’t have to register.” This year’s event was adjusted since the library has had to move into the temporary location due to the car crash that took down part of the main library building’s walls on May 21. “This is going to be the fourth year we’re holding a trunk-or-treat. It’s a little different, obviously, because we’re not at the same location we were,” Getzin said. “It will be outside in the parking lot, but we also will have some parking available here. Some people may need to park farther down in the Meijer parking lot (near 15 Mile Road and Utica Road).” Getzin said the library likes hosting a trunk-or-treat because it allows kids to have all the traditional fun of Halloween but in a safe, daytime environment. “It’s always fun to come to a trunkor-treat, especially in a smaller town, because you get all sorts of people coming out to hand out candy and it’s really

will have a number of attractions to interest residents. “It’s going to be Sunday, Oct. 8 from noon to 3 p.m. Last year was the first year I was able to attend. I am looking forward to it. Our pay-on-call firefighters will be there, including the mayor. We will have a hot dog lunch available. We’ll have a bake sale and raffle,” Kretzschmar said. “We’re having a candy drop from one of the fire truck cranes. We’ll have a DJ, face painting, arts and crafts.” She added that there will be several opportunities for attendees to engage with the departments and to even get to try some of the equipment used by the Public Safety Department. “We’ll have several fire trucks out there. There’s a vintage fire truck we will have on display,” said Kretzschmar. “People can check out our equipment and several firefighters will be out there in their gear. Our SWAT officers from the county team will be out there. Kids can come and talk to firefighters and spray the hoses. … The Department of Public Works will also bring some of their vehicles.” Gillies said it’s the perfect way for Fraser

residents to learn more about how their city works. “It’s a great opportunity to see what is inside the building they drive by on a daily basis,” he said. “They can see what resources they are paying for and what equipment we can bring out to respond to an emergency. They also can meet the people we have in our department and they can explain about how our department works.” Sign-ups for upcoming public safety educational programs also will be offered. “Our department has recently started doing more community outreach programs,” said Gillies. “We have a car seat clinic scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 10. We got great feedback from our CPR classes in the spring so we are having one on Thursday, Nov. 9. People can sign up at the open house. The CPR class has a small fee, $10-$15 to cover the registration card and instruction book. The car seat clinic is free.” The hope is that this will allow residents to feel more engaged with their local government and answer any questions they might have in a fun and relaxed environment. “This is a great opportunity to get to know the Public Safety Department,” Kretzschmar said. “You can also talk to the mayor, public safety director and so forth. You can bring your kids, have some fun and

NATURE-BASED LEARNING ON THE RISE IN MICHIGAN

Firefly Forest School Director Bailey Lininger uses a trail sign to engage students outdoors.

‘IT REALLY BUILDS RESILIENCE, AND KIDDOS UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE PART OF THE WORLD AROUND THEM’ BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com

onstantly inundated by technology, today’s kids are spending much of their free time hunched over a screen inside instead of playing outdoors. Parents, on the other hand, are busy looking for experiences that will allow their children to unplug and get active, sparking the demand for nature-based schools and programs across the nation. The drive to offer kids hands-on learning experiences outdoors — commonly referred to as the forest school or nature school movement — is a trend that’s gaining momentum nationwide, including in Michigan. In these schools and programs, children spend most — or all — of their time outside. Last year, the Farmington Hills Nature Center at Heritage Park opened a Nature Preschool for children ages 3-5. “We use the outdoors as our classroom, so we’re really building skills in a real-world learning environment. Skills like resilience, social skills, building a classroom community, and building a respect and curiosity for nature,” said Nature Center Supervisor Ashlie Smith. Students at the Heritage Park Nature Preschool — a state licensed child care center with preschool teachers who are Forest School Certified — learn outside every day for the entire half-day class period they sign up for. If severe weather occurs, class activities are moved into a licensed classroom at the Nature Center. See LEARNING on page 15A

Ford House Offers Educational Programs For All Ages

The kids are back in school, but they aren’t the only ones learning something new this fall. The Edsel and Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores is offering programs for adults and youths that promise to be enlightening, engaging and educational. “We really focus on all learners,” Ford House Director of Education Jason Dake said. “We want to provide educational programs for everyone.” Edsel and Eleanor Ford were known for their impeccable sense of style along with their efforts to protect their estate’s natural environment, so a sustainability talk about fashion at 7 p.m. Nov. 2 in the Visitor Center is an ideal fit. Fashion designer, stylist and consultant Paulina Petkoski — who worked with designers including Calvin Klein, Isaac Mizrahi, Diane Von Furstenberg and Marc Jacobs — will discuss how the fashion industry is addressing this issue and why it’s so important. Make a beautiful plate or candleholder using the fused glass technique during a Maker Studio workshop at 1 p.m. Nov. 18 in the Visitor Center. Artist and educator Helen Agius-Andreae will lead participants as they design their piece, which will be fused and slumped in a kiln and ready for pickup from

the Ford House two weeks later. All materials are supplied — just bring your imagination. No experience is necessary.

See spaces inside the house not normally open to visitors during the “Nooks & Crannies” guided tours on various dates Oct. 6 through Dec. 31. Participants will traverse private stairways, the attic, the basement, the infirmary and the underground tunnel to the Powerhouse. Each “Nooks & Crannies” tour is only open to eight people because it takes participants into some small spaces. Because it involves climbing multiple flights of stairs, it’s not wheelchair accessible. Dake said this is “one of our more popular house tours.” It’s usually only offered during the fall and winter. Advance registration for all programs is strongly recommended as space is limited. To register or for more information, visit www.fordhouse.org/events/.

ing members of the United Auto Workers union, who 13 days earlier began walking off jobs at Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Stellantis. Drake Enterprises is a non-unionized auto supplier that specializes in gear shift levers and transmission components for heavy trucks. In his return to Macomb County, Trump used his roughly hour-long speech to bash Democratic President Joe Biden’s push for electric vehicles and promised to stop what he called a “transition to hell” that will force automakers to close factories and move production overseas, repeating claims Bridge Michigan previously found to be inflated. Trump’s visit to the township occurred without incident, according to township clerk Kim Meltzer “I think our township did a great job coordinating with the safety of the community with the law enforcement and with the schools, because they were butting up to the

ly voters cannot willingly spoil their ballot and recast a vote the way absentee voters can. Meltzer highlighted how early voting will likely reduce the “bottleneck” of absentee and in-person votes on election day, speeding up the vote-counting process by spreading out when votes are cast. Despite the eventual unanimous vote, not all on the board were happy with the number and location of sites. “I appreciate this is a new process and a new system that you’re going to oversee and you’re going to have a learning curve about this,” said Trustee Julie Matuzak. “I’m concerned that there’s only going to be one early voting site and it’s in the north end of the township. … If you have limited transportation and you live in the south end of the township, it is hard to get here.” Supervisor Robert Cannon was unhappy with the claim the Township Hall is in the northern part of the township, while Meltzer stated there were plans to hold a second site in a church near 15 Mile Road and Little Mack Avenue. Meltzer said there were budgetary concerns since only 40% of the costs will be covered by the state, and she was concerned about having the laptops used by election workers connected to the internet — the laptops are normally not connected — and off-site. Part of that concern comes from the

school property,” Meltzer said, referring to various L’Anse Creuse Public Schools properties near Drake Enterprises. “We were a great host, and I think that’s what we should be no matter who the candidate is.” Meltzer, who was not in attendance, said she was honored to have presidential candidates visit Clinton Township. “I’m always honored to have any person who is wanting to serve our country to pick Clinton Township to come into and speak and let everybody know their platform … I think it’s a good thing for Clinton Township to have people of that stature coming into the community. If Biden came in, I would feel the same way.” Clinton Township Supervisor Robert Cannon, who was also not in attendance, praised the township’s public safety departments and all attendees for being respectful with each other.

use of electronic pollbooks, which Meltzer says have yet to be completed. Meltzer did not rule out the possibility of adding more early voting sites for summer 2024 primaries and the November elections.

Delayed business

The board’s Sept. 18 meeting was its first meeting to reach a quorum since Aug. 14, as both a special meeting on Aug. 21 and a regular meeting on Aug. 28 were only attended by three members. The reason for the Aug. 21 meeting was to prevent a Mount Clemens water project from occurring in Clinton Township, and the month between meetings has allowed for progress on the issue. “There was a lot of speculation and a lot of things that were moving around, and I had a chance to meet with the mayor of Mount Clemens to alleviate any concerns that our community would have had,” Cannon said. The concern held by township officials is that Mount Clemens was going to build a water tower on property within the township. To manage that, the board passed amendments to the zoning ordinance defining various degrees of “essential services.” A water storage tank would fall under these definitions and would have to comply with setbacks and other standards set by the township.

stuffed animals and blankets were given as time went on. Tammy learned these animals were donated to the hospital. “We were touched by it,” Tammy said. “We kept her stuffed animals. One of the blankets we buried with her, the other ones we kept. We know how much it means to us and our children, so we wanted to give back.” Erin died on Oct. 4, 2001.

was getting it done with his arm when Chippewa Valley needed him most. Senior wideout Evan DiBucci and junior wideout DeShaun Lanier were finding space throughout the matchup, including Lanier on crucial first down catches throughout the game. Lanier finished with nine receptions for 93 yards in the win Lanier said he credits their chemistry to their success on the field. “Ever since freshman year when I got brought up from JV, we just been working together and building that chemistry between each other,” Lanier said. “We’re best friends. That’s my brother right there. We just go to war, and you already know we’re on the same page.” The Chippewa Valley defense deserved some credit as they returned to form this week after allowing 43 points to New Baltimore Anchor Bay the week before. Chippewa Valley senior defensive back

the organization Team Patton Outreach and have held a stuffed animal drive. Toys are collected between August and October and are donated to Children’s Hospital of Detroit, Ascension St. John Hospital and the Stilson Specialty Center. Tammy and Cliff usually celebrate Erin’s birthday with a party, complete with a balloon release and cake between friends and family. But for 2023, Team Patton Outreach decided to honor Erin’s memory in a different way by making blankets. With $1,000 in fleece, Tammy and Cliff rented a space at the Clinton-Macomb Public Library on Sept. 16 and got to work.

“It went better than what we expected,” Cliff said. “We were able to make 111 blankets that day inside of a six-hour period.” Tammy and Cliff were not alone in the endeavor. Calls for help were put out and the two parents were joined by volunteers from Wyandot Middle School and Chippewa Valley High School’s National Honor Society. About 60 volunteers came out to help from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Refreshments were donated by Little Caesars at 18 Mile and Hayes roads. Being a birthday celebration, volunteers were also treated to cake and sang “Happy Birthday.” “It was an incredible day,” Tammy said.

“It was a very good day.” Erin is also memorized through the Erin T.M. Patton Endowed Memorial Scholarship at Wayne State University, which helps students enrolled in the School of Medicine that have a financial need. Cardiology students are the preferred recipients of the fund. Team Patton Outreach does other activities in the Clinton Township area, such as providing lock boxes for seniors and taking kids to Detroit Pistons basketball games. For more information visit www.team pattonoutreach.com. Call Staff Writer Dean Vaglia at (586) 498-1043.

Rayshaun Hester and junior linebacker Donny Diegel each recorded an interception in the win. Chippewa Valley junior kicker Juliano Haddad drilled a pair of field goals as well. Chippewa Valley has redeemed themselves since starting the season 1-2, and they carried the momentum of the win over Dakota into a 38-21 win over Sterling Heights Stevenson on Sept. 29 at Stevenson High School. Schuster connected with Lanier for three passing touchdowns while Shaw ran for two in the win. Dakota avenged the loss to Chippewa Valley to the tune of a 31-19 victory over Romeo on Sept. 29 at Dakota High School as Hamby ran for two touchdowns in the win. There’s now a four-way tie for first in the MAC Red between Chippewa Valley, Dakota, Romeo, and Utica Eisenhower. Dakota and Eisenhower will face each other on Oct. 6 at Swinehart Stadium while Chippewa Valley and Romeo will go headto-head at Chippewa Valley High School. Lanier said the team is just getting start-

ed but said he knows the kind of squad they can be. “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish,” Lanier said. “It’s personal. We can’t be

not finishing these games. We’re finishing this year and we’re going to win it all. We’re winning the MAC. We taking over. That’s the plan. It’s personal.”

for the blue-collar vote in Michigan, which is the birthplace of the modern labor movement and remains one of the most unionized states in the country. As of 2022, 14% of Michigan workers — about 589,000 — were members of a union, the 11th highest rate in the country and well above the national average of 10%, according to federal data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. While striking UAW members are pushing for higher wages, cost-of-living increases and changes to a lower-tiered pay system for new hires, the union has also expressed concern about the industry’s ongoing industry shift to electric vehicles, which have fewer parts and therefore require fewer workers to produce, an anxiety Trump has hammered on again and again. In his speech in Clinton Township, Trump laid out what he called a “vision for economic nationalism” focused on keeping American jobs at home. The visit came the day after Biden made history as the first sitting president to join a picket line. Biden spoke to striking UAW members on Sept. 26 outside a General Motors facility in Belleville, where he backed the union’s call for a 40% wage bump, saying auto workers deserve a “hell of a lot more” than they are currently paid. The Biden administration’s proposed fuel emissions standards, which are projected to require two-thirds of all new auto sales to be electric by 2032, amounts to a “government assassination of your jobs and your industry,” Trump argued. “He’s selling you out to environmental extremists, the radical left, people who have no idea how bad this is going to be,” Trump said. “You can be loyal to American labor or you can be loyal to the environmental lunatics, but you can’t really be loyal to both.” Biden has called for a “just” transition to EVs as part of his goal to make half of all

new car sales electric by 2030. That would be a dramatic increase in the U.S., where EVs accounted for about six percent of new car sales in 2022, which doubled the prior year. To accelerate the shift, Biden has authorized billions of dollars in federal grants and loans to help traditional automakers retool existing facilities for EV production. Last year’s Inflation Reduction Act also expanded federal tax credits for EV customers. Detroit automakers are already spending big to ramp up EV production and compete with other companies, most notably Tesla, the California-based company that uses cheaper nonunion labor to produce electric cars. General Motors, which plans to spend $7 billion on EV and battery facilities in Michigan, has aims to end production of internal combustion engines by 2035. Trump aggressively courted blue-collar workers in his winning 2016 campaign, attacking what he called unfair international trade deals like the North American Free Trade Agreement, which he eventually scrapped and replaced as president. Trump won Michigan that year by a razor-thin 10,714 votes, topping Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by fewer than threetenths of a percentage point. Biden won the state by about three percentage points in 2020, topping Trump by 154,188 votes. St. Clair Shores City Councilman and UAW 412 member Chris Vitale attended the event, describing it to be as “crowded,” “raucous,” and “boisterous” as any other of the Trump events he’s attended. But for as brash as some of the former president’s comments may have been, Vitale said there was some truth to them. “Trump says something like ‘Electric cars are going to spell the death of your industry,’” Vitale said. “Well, it might not spell the absolute death of things — I think that three years from now there will still be three major auto companies with a presence in the Detroit area. But I will say that potentially five to 10 years out, maybe we’re down to a smaller number (and) a smaller number of facilities, and eventually it will dwindle and

dry up. He may be a little exaggerated in his timeline, but he isn’t necessarily wrong.” Vitale recounted that much of the crowd were fellow union members and that being there was a show of support from Republican-aligned UAW members, who had to stand around for three hours in Drake Enterprises’ facility in order to attend the speech. “The idea that the union people are not supportive of Trump is false,” Vitale said. “He has a lot of supporters in the union ranks. He would not win Macomb County if he didn’t.” Vitale says he heard members present say they wished the speech was held in a union shop, but he believes it would not have been favorable for a union shop’s owner to do so. “Union shops are typically much larger,” Vitale said. “They often sell to consumers and they have stockholders and they risk being boycotted and things like that, whereas nonunion shops are typically family-owned. One guy calls the shots and he gets to decide if Trump comes in there or not. They don’t sell to retail, so they don’t have to worry about being boycotted.” Ahead of Trump’s remarks, U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Michigan, released a statement addressing the Trump and Biden visits and a “major contrast” in presidential leadership. She called Biden “a true champion for our workers and the industry that fuels Michigan’s economy.” “He’s committed to a future where our workers get the pay and benefits that they deserve, instead of their jobs being shipped overseas or to the South,” Stabenow said. In contrast, she said Trump “turned his back on our autoworkers.” “He’s lined the pockets of the wealthy and shipped American manufacturing jobs overseas. When times were tough, he said that auto plants should move to lower-cost, nonunion states. He even said the auto companies should just go bankrupt,” Stabenow said. “This week, more than ever, it’s clear who stands with Michigan.”

“It’s meant to be very immersive, where children are learning throughout multiple seasons. … They’re here every day, all winter and on rainy days too … so it really builds resilience, and kiddos understand that they are part of the world around them,” said Smith. To some, it may look like children at the Heritage Park Nature Preschool are simply playing outside for hours each day, but Smith said their time outdoors helps develop valuable skills and fosters traits like resilience, leadership, problem-solving and perseverance. “Instead of having a classroom that is set up for them with everything perfectly arranged, they are learning that things are dynamic, things change and the seasons change. The classroom is different every time they come in, which really builds their ability to become self-sufficient and empowers them in their learning,” she explained. In 2019, Bailey Lininger opened Firefly Forest School to better connect students with the natural world. “Both parents and educators want kids to experience an unplugged childhood as

much as they can — one where they can dig for worms, balance on fallen tree trunks and splash in puddles,” said Lininger, the director of Firefly Forest School. Firefly Forest School provides southeast Michigan children ages 3-10 with immersive, nature-based learning through enrichment programming from nature preserves in the metro Detroit area. “We love being able to complement a more traditional experience at a more traditional school with some time to just run and be free and play and climb and build and dig and do all the things that are a really important part of being a kid,” Lininger said. Every class is held entirely outdoors every day, rain or shine, even in the chilly winter temperatures. “We’re not just going outside for 20 minutes to play at recess or only when it’s nice and sunny and 75 degrees. We really work with our families and our kids to embrace all weather,” Lininger said. Armed with the proper attire and outdoor gear, students are taught how to embrace the world around them as it is and use it as their classroom. “The more time for unstructured play that you give kids in the natural world, the more creative they are, the more they learn, the more they deepen their growth and fine

motor skills, the more they are able to explore and learn independently instead of just being guided, and the more opportunities they are given to be creative problem solvers, to think critically about things, to learn to be adaptable and flexible,” added Lininger. Students are free to run, jump, splash and explore and, in the process, they are constantly learning and growing.

“One of the things that we really focus on in our program is instilling a sense of selfefficacy and capability in our kids. We’re really focused on giving our kids the chance to feel competent and capable — that’s something that we see a ton of growth in,” Lininger said. “We see a lot of confidence too.” Call Staff Writer Mary Beth Almond at (586) 498-1060.
