The Fowlerville Senior Center was contacted by Allison Krys, of the Oakland / Livingston Human Services Agency (OLHSA) regarding a supplemental food assistance program from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

The supplemental food assistance program delivers "Shelf Stable" food once a month - shelf stable means boxed food, canned goods and bagged food stuffs.

The Fowlerville Senior Center has decided to participate in this food assistance program to not only assist our members but also anyone in the community - whether you are a member of the Fowlerville Senior Center or not...

If you or someone you know could benefit from this program, come to the Fowlerville Senior Center, Monday through Friday from 8:30A -1:00P and fill out the application

The application requires minimal personal information.

CURRENT MICHIGAN RESIDENT = yes

NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN YOUR HOUSEHOLD = how many people live with you

HOW ARE YOU ELIGIBLE:

"NEED" – do you need supplemental food assistance

DATE = date you sign up

The food boxes would be delivered on the third Thursday of the month, to the Fowlerville Senior Center for individuals / families to pick up.

The Fowlerville Family Fair is celebrating its 140th year and will be held from July 27 through August 1. The Fowlerville Senior Center is very happy to be participating in the fair with a unique woodworking demonstration under the Grandstand and we would like some assistance from the Fowlerville Community with this project.

The Senior Center has obtained a ten-foot cedar log, which was donated by Master Logger, Jeff Gudwer, owner of Gudwer Forest Products, of Gladstone, Michigan. Now that we have our log, the important question is, what should we carve on our totem pole?

The totem carving will be done utilizing hand tools. We will carve approximately ten unique carvings of historical and current events commemorating and celebrating the Fowlerville area. We are asking residents of the Fowlerville area to send us carving suggestions, color pictures would be helpful, either by mail, at Fowlerville Senior Center, 203 N. Collins St, Fowlerville, MI 48836 or by email at [email protected].

The Senior Center’s totem pole carving will be held under the Grandstand, and our plan is to make this a real community participation event. Anyone who would like to assist in carving will have an opportunity to participate and carve on the totem pole.

No experience is necessary, we will show you how.
