I have lived in Orion Township for the last 14 years, and I support Penny Shults to remain our Orion Township clerk. Not only is she highly committed to her position as she continues her education in the field, Penny is knowledgeable and caring, with a strong passion for our community. There is simply no […]
At first glance you might think that I am suggesting you don a bathing suit, travel to your favorite beach or lake, and dive in. That would be more refreshing than what is coming up in the next couple of months, especially here in Lake Orion. Yes, it’s primary election time in August and then […]

Businesses and non-residents pay a whopping 18 mils for ‘operate’ which, if I had to pay would have added […]
Many of us in this community have faithfully supported the Lake Orion School District with our tax dollars for many years. Now that we are living on fixed incomes, the prospect is that we might be forced out of our homes and businesses because of rising taxes. Those of us that are now grandparents would […]
In the upcoming August 2nd Primary Election I will be voting for candidate John Reilly to be our next 46th District representative in the Michigan House. John Reilly has stood steadfast against Common Core and its UN-Constitutional federalization of our children’s education.
