Progress is coming regardless, but the type of progress is a choice. I’ve looked at both sides of the issue, and I fully support the purchase of the Lake Orion Lumber Yard by our village and DDA. Over the past year we have heard outrage from citizens complaining about the development of three major properties […]
PLEASE BE AWARE! The coming Village Council meeting, Feb. 13, may be the meeting that the decision is made regarding the proposed $5 million DDA bond issue. Be vigilant and attend this meeting or contact your council members to let your feelings be known. Remember, if the DDA can’t make the required payments that the […]
Being a month into 2023, have you decided if your choice of resolutions were the best choices for you? If not, no worries, let’s remove any previous thoughts that are not working for us. Then, taking in nice relaxing breaths, let’s just simply sink into ourselves. When you do that, can you reach a point […]

It is not exclusive to Orion. Nearly all communities have one. Rochester does events, including the light show. Oxford helps renovate the […]
Happy New Year! Once again, we have turned our calendar pages to a new year. This is traditionally a time where we plan on adding new activities or a new theme to our lives, adding, in a positive way, something that brings strength to our body, mind and spirit: which equals a stronger and better […]
I am respectfully writing to encourage the Oxford/Orion Community to support the food drive sponsored by the Orion Neighborhood Television and Oxford Community Television. Our community is fortunate to have these two fine organizations team together for this drive to raise funds for the needy. Oxford/Orion Fish is a excellent nonprofit organization that has been […]
I am relatively new to the Village of Lake Orion and cannot understand how the elected council and administration for a village government that has been in existence since 1859 does not know the law, charter and rules of procedure for being a village government and council.

We are grateful for their continuous generosity and delicious food. A special thanks to our dedicated Meals on Wheels drivers who take time out […]
