Today's News Fast: Sept. 7

September is National Courtesy Month, so we hope you will do us the courtesy of reading Today's News Fast!

  • Even though we'll break into the low 70s today, it will feel like the mid 60s. It will be partly sunny, with a 30 percent chance of showers tonight, according to The Weather Channel.
  • The township wants its residents to talk trash tonight. A special meeting is being held at 7 p.m. at town hall to discuss the planned contract extension with Waste Management as the township's garbage collector.
  • There are lots of ways to save this week, from to This Weeks Deals to Save Macomb Moola. The latter has a deal for Lakeside Mall that can help you finish off your back-to-school shopping, or get a jump on Christmas.
  • With Applefests at St. Lawrence Catholic Church and Wolcott Mill, and zucchini races at the library, this week is sure to be a cornucopia of fun. Find fun for the whole week right here.
  • Continuing our Pastor Profiles series, we talk with Ken Wagener at St. Peter Lutheran Church. Wagener shares his "equip, enrich, encourage" philosophy and a few fun facts.
  • In recognition of Macomb Township's German roots, we bring you the German Word of the Day: unsicher, meaning insecure, is an adjective pronounced [une-sikher].
