The Potter Zoo opened its 31st annual Wonderland of Lights. Family and friends came out to enjoy the lights, music and Christmas festivities throughout the zoo. The zoo is home to more than 30 animals that people were able to see in the decorative lights. The event was sponsored by 26 local companies in the Lansing area.
City residents advocated for change in regard to neighborhood speeding concerns at the Transportation Commission Meeting on Nov. 6. Public comments to the commission calling for better traffic regulation come less than 24 hours after a fatal hit-and-run near Michigan State University’s campus. While a suspect was arrested in connection to the crash, which killed a 20-year-old Oxford man, it is just one of many road safety concerns, according to the city residents. The residents’ focus? The children.
Families from all over the Lansing area packed the streets of Downtown Lansing for Halloween weekend as Trick-or-Treat on the Square returned. More than 30 local businesses new and old participated in this year’s event.
