1/15/14 - The Huron Valley community is again working to reflect the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a number of events and the goal of making the holiday more than just a single-day observance. âThe Power of Peace, Love, and Respectâ is the theme inspiring a series of local events honoring and celebrating the Dr. King holiday, which complement the 9th annual March on Main Street from Prospect Hill to Central Park on Monday afternoon. The march is organized by the Huron Valley Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Committee. It works in partnership with Huron Valley Schools to make it a day âonâ rather than a day âoffâ while encouraging volunteer service throughout the year. Officials say area residents will have more opportunities than ever this year to participate in the spirit of Dr. Kingâs legacy, with numerous events planned throughout the weekend as well as on the day itself. A film discussion, charity event, community volunteer fair, and concert by Josh White Jr. are just some of the events, all of which are free and open to the public. Complete information on Huron Valleyâs MLK Day activities can be found through the link or press release below. (JM)
