Township approves hiring of 6 firefighters
BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com
MACOMB TOWNSHIP — In the wake of a personnel crisis at the Macomb Township Fire Department, the Board of Trustees has authorized a slate of employment-related measures to shore-up the roster of front-line first responders.
Trustees approved motions authorizing the hiring of six full-time
firefighters and a full-time trainer. They also approved a working agreement with the Macomb Township Professional Firefighters Local 5023 to set the terms of the position.
The authorization of the positions comes after conversations between township officials, fire officials and an examination of budget projections.

MACOMB TOWNSHIP — Most people cannot say they have accomplished much before entering high school. Matthew Majchrzak Jr., incoming Dakota High School ninth
grader, has plenty more than the average teen to boast about.
Majchrzak, at age 14, is an Eagle Scout. Active in Troop 248, Majchrzak achieved Eagle on July 8 and is scheduled to have his court of honor ceremony on Saturday, Sept. 13.

Artist Choice Show coming to Art Center
Solo exhibit showcases artist’s growth
BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com
MOUNT CLEMENS — One of the showcase staples of the Anton Art Center is set to return this September.
Starting Sept. 2, the Anton Art Center will host its annual Artist Choice Show on its first-floor gallery. Featuring 53 works of art by 44 artists, the show serves to showcase the best works from members of five regional arts organizations.
“We collaborate with five different groups across Macomb County,” said Stephanie Hazzard, the AAC’s exhibition manager. “The Warren Tri-County Fine Arts, the Lakeside Palette Club of St. Clair Shores, the Mount Clemens Art Association, the Romeo Guild of Art and the Shelby Township Fine Art Society.”
The Artist Choice Show is the second annual show hosted by the Anton Art Center for the five groups, the first being a themed show.
“The first show usually has a theme as something for the artists to be inspired by, to communicate with or to comment on,” Hazzard said. “The second show, the Artist Choice Show, has no theme and so artists are eligible to enter artwork of any theme and also of any medium. Guests will see artworks that span across fiber works to classic clay, drawing, painting, mixed media and so forth … Many people cel-

MOUNT CLEMENS — At the sounding of a whistle shortly after 9 a.m. on Aug. 21, the denizens of Mount Clemens were awoken by the thundering drums and trumpeting horns of one of Macomb County’s oldest traditions, marching through the city’s streets.
The Old Crowd, a group of 240 men that have been assembling every August in the county seat since 1880, gathered and set off for its 145th day of festivities. The first meeting of the group occurred as four former residents of Mount Clemens
Old Crowd returns for annual gathering
were looking for a way to reconnect as they began moving into the surrounding townships and elsewhere in the state.
“The founding fathers … were members of the community here, and they saw that in 1880 already people were moving away into the nether regions of Macomb County,” Old Crowd Vice Chairman Paul Berger said. “So, what they tried to do is they tried to have a reunion; get everybody together and invite everyone in.”
Functionally speaking, not much has changed since the original meeting nearly a century and a half ago. The itinerary for the day begins with a brass band and a parade through

Art & Apples Festival to kick off fall fun
BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
ROCHESTER — The Art & Apples Festival will return to Rochester this weekend, signaling to locals that fall is near.
Now in its 59th year, the three-day festival of fine arts will once again bring art enthusiasts of all ages to Rochester Municipal Park, which will transform into one of the nation’s largest juried fine art festivals Sept. 5-7.
Nearly 60,000 attendees visit the festival each year over the three-day weekend, and Paint Creek Center for the Arts Executive Director Shaun Hayes said the goal is always to keep the festival fresh to draw both new and returning visitors.
“It’s a great way to kick off the fall season, now that the weather is starting to cool off,” he said.
Over 250 artists from across the nation will display and sell their work in 16 different fine art

Art installation celebrates
BY ALYSSA OCHSS aochss@candgnews.com
HARRISON TOWNSHIP — On Aug. 19, Huron-Clinton Metroparks unveiled an interactive art piece that celebrates the lake sturgeon and its habitat at Lake St. Clair Metropark in Harrison Township.
The art piece sits in the plaza right beside the pool and in front of beautiful Lake St. Clair. It’s shaped like a frame so many parkgoers can take pictures with it.
The art installation is made completely out of recycled materials including electrical wire, fishing line and bottles. It took from May to August to complete.
According to a press release, using recycled materials supports the Metroparks Climate Action Plan and Keep It Clean initiatives.
Huron-Clinton Metroparks CEO Amy McMillan said the parks are 85 years old and if they had not started taking interest, they’d be standing in the middle of a subdivision.
“So this work is as important to us today as it was 85 years ago,” McMillan said.
Artist Halima Afi Cassells said she was excited

A house fire on Aug. 9 led to calls for more full-time firefighters to be employed by the department after two firefighters were injured on the call. The department has needed to rely on automatic mutual aid calls for fires within the township as only a limited number of full-time firefighters are available at any given time. The day shift on Aug. 14 had eight full-time firefighters on duty across the township, according to Local 5023 Secretary Andy Saucedo.

The Mount Clemens Grand Prix soapbox derby is being held on Saturday, Sept. 6 along the Crocker Boulevard bridge. Presented by the Mount Clemens Lions Club the Mount Clemens Goodfellows, the grand prix began in 1992 as a fundraising event and has raised over $407,000 for local charities.
HARRISON TOWNSHIP — The Metro Boat Show is coming to Lake St. Clair Metropark Sept. 11 through Sept. 14 with lots of boatrelated vendors and products for boaters to enjoy.
The show is open from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Sept. 11 and Sept. 12, 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 13 and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sept. 14.
Nicki Polan, executive director of the Michigan Boating Industries Association, said this boat show is her favorite because boats arrive on the water and on land. Her company
has been promoting the show for 16 years, but the boat show has been at this location for around 50 years.
“We really do get a lot of big boats because it’s easy to transport them by water,” Polan said. “We’ve had boats at this show up to 60 feet in length. Even if you’re not in the market for a boat that size, it’s fun to check them out and be able to get on a boat that size.”
She said they have all kinds of boats available for fishing, cruising and more.
“Great place to shop, great place to learn

Call me for an appointment and I will work with you to keep your feet healthy.”
Scout
The road that Majchrzak took to get to his Eagle status was a long one, beginning in his elementary school days when a recruiter from Cub Scouts Pack 149 visited his first grade class.
“I decided, ‘Why not?” Majchrzak said. “I wasn’t doing anything. I wasn’t in any sports and wasn’t really involved with anything, so I signed up and I went and liked it, so I kept doing it and I got to do some pretty cool things.”
Over the course of his Scouting journey Majchrzak participated in a number of “pretty cool things,” ranging from spending the night at the Toledo Zoo twice, lodging in the Frankenmuth “Scout house” and staying overnight at the USS Edson in Bay City. Majchrzak cherished his time at summer camps, being particularly fond of a 2024 trip to Cole Canoe Base.
“I took a lot of really cool badges that time, and I came home with 10. I was pretty proud about that,” Majchrzak said.
Along with the trips and excursions he was able to take part in, Majchrzak found learning new things while getting to be with his friends to be more than enough reason to remain in Scouting.
“I just found it fun hanging out with my friends, and I wanted to learn stuff about life because (Scouting) teaches you a lot of life skills,” Majchrzak said. “I learned how to cook some stuff in Scouts; I learned how to camp and properly do a bunch of stuff. It was just a cool way to do something fun with my friends.”
As part of achieving the Eagle Scout rank, Majchrzak underwent his Eagle Scout project from September 2024 to April 2025. The projects see Scouts give back to their community in some way, and Majchrzak See SCOUT on page 17A

Trustees
Trustees also approved a signing, retention and referral bonus program for parttime firefighters.
“We have one Fire Department in Macomb Township that consists of full-time firefighters and consists of part-time firefighters, but they are all firefighters,” Township Supervisor Frank Viviano said. “I appreciate all of the work that everyone here does, and I appreciate the work that our part-time team does, too.”
Township Clerk Kristi Pozzi said that the actions taken by the board were “stage one” in the steps being taken to alleviate the staffing level concerns at the Fire Department and that the township would continue working the fire and finance departments.
Sidewalk maintenance changes
Trustees also approved changes to the township’s sidewalk maintenance program.
The changes to the program — namely expanded communications by sending informational letters to all residents in a given year’s targeted township quadrant and including more information on the letters, adding financial hardship options and
giving residents 18 months to make repair payments — are the result of feedback from homeowners.
A number of homeowners complained about paying for sidewalk repairs and the initial terms of the program at a June 25 public hearing. The program is a response to the June 28, 2023, Michigan Supreme Court decision in the Kandil-Elsayed v F & E Oil, Inc. and Pinsky v Kroger case that led to the end of the “open and obvious” defense that used to shield the township from liability for sidewalk-related injuries.
Viviano said that the township would make a large effort to inform residents of the policy.
“We realize that not enough people were informed of what this is and why we did it, so we’re taking extra measures to get it out to the community as much as possible,” Viviano said.
Special events ordinance
Trustees also approved an ordinance to streamline and define solicitors, vendors, food trucks, special events and fireworks.
The ordinance outlines when and where certain vendors can operate, how special events can be applied for and when fireworks may be used, among other rules.

ebrate the themed show as a challenge to adhere more to a specific theme, but this show gives artists the chance to share the work they’re the most passionate about.”
The 2025 edition of the Artist Choice Show sees several notable developments for the event. Moving the show to the firstfloor gallery means there’s more space for artwork, with the 53 works being selected coming from a record-setting 126 submissions. Whittling down the submissions to what would fit within the gallery was left to juror Martine MacDonald, a multimedia artist and instructor at Wayne County Community College District.
In the second-floor gallery starting on Saturday, Sept. 6, the exhibition “Works by Christina Haylett” will present a collection of new and old work from the titular Oakland Township-based artist.
Picking up an interest in art from an early age and attending the College for Creative Studies in the 1970s, Haylett’s passion for art took on a new level once she retired. In the years since retirement, she focused on painting, but over the past five years Haylett has shifted her work to incorporate nonconventional and recycled materials.
“I’m 75 years old and I’ve been thinking a lot about current events and things that are happening now and how things are being
recycled,” Haylett said. “The recycling pieces, in a way, were an attempt to use things that are here now and reconfigure them into something different. The clay pieces, I started doing those because … working three-dimensionally with your hands is a whole different feeling and it’s given me a whole different perspective on my work. It’s like playing.”
The shift in Haylett’s work comes from a change in attitude toward approaching the world, a change coming in no small part from her age.
“I think now being older, in the last couple of years I just feel a lot freer to do what I want to do,” Haylett said. “I don’t feel the constraints on me about whether I should be doing something that’s current or trendy. I just feel like my artwork now is more of a representation of me.”
The opening reception for “Works by Christina Haylett” and an artist talk with Haylett will be held on Saturday, Sept. 13 from 1-3 p.m.
“I hope (the exhibit) is not boring,” Haylett said. “That would be my hope, that people will be entertained by it.”
Both exhibits will run at the Anton Art Center though Thursday, Oct. 16. The Anton Art Center is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free. For more information visit www. theartcenter.org.

Old Crowd
Mount Clemens, starting at the Macomb County Circuit Court, looping around Walnut Street and Macomb Place before marching down to the YMCA next to MacArthur Park. From there, members embark on boats or travel by other means to Lake St. Clair Metropark for a full day of three meals, fishing, cooking and camaraderie.
“We eat three meals a day, a big band’s there, have a couple beers and we go home,” Old Crowd President Mac MacCarroll said.
Many of the changes that have occurred within the Old Crowd have come down to balancing the new with the old. What was once an event held under a single tent has since evolved to multiple tents. Most of the cooking has been moved to catering due to ordinance shifting, though the frying of fish and boiling of corn cobs remain an on-site special. Bands still play for the congregating members, even as the location of the Old Crowd’s meetup has changed from Conger Bay to MacRay Harbor to Lake St. Clair Metropark. At one point, a double decker boat carried the Old Crowd out to their gathering spot, though the ship has since traded the Clinton River for the Chicago River, leaving members of the crowd to embark on private ships should they choose to sail.
Membership rules are heavily steeped in tradition. The 240-maximum number for members has been set since the 1900s and membership really only opens up when an existing member dies or becomes a life member. New members can apply starting at age 35 with children of current members getting the chance to apply early starting at age 30. One notable membership tradition
is that Old Crowd members must be men, with Berger saying there were “too many problems” on the two occasions women were allowed in. Berger claims this exclusion was one of the contributing factors that led to the creation of the women-only Daughters of Macomb organization, which itself meets annually in August.
Much like the activities themselves remaining mostly unchanged since the late 1800s, so too does the purpose of reconnecting with old friends and acquaintances. Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel, an Old Crowd member since the early 2000s, demonstrated this by catching up with former law enforcement friend and current St. Clair County Magistrate Dennis Rickert prior to the parade’s start.
“It really is kind of a unique thing,” Hackel said. “Really no purpose behind it other than bringing people together. It’s almost like a reunion of sorts, like a high school reunion but we didn’t go to school together. We all connected somehow through civic and community events and just being around the Mount Clemens area.”
With membership being a tightly controlled thing and the waiting list remaining long, Berger believes the Old Crowd will last much, much longer than the next 145 years.
“Hopefully it will keep on going forever and ever, amen,” Berger said. “There are enough people that are applying on a regular basis, we’re constantly getting new members to fill in and we’re also making sure that there’s people that are invested in the thing so that we have the core group that puts the whole thing on … So long as we have a good core group, I think it’ll be around for a while.”

SPOTLIGHT ON BUSINESS
Standing in front of his produce and previous awards,
FAMILY MARKETS, GARDEN CENTERS ROOTED IN HOMETOWNS
BY MIKE KOURY mkoury@candgnews.com
Creating a lasting business in a community can be quite difficult. Growing that business can be even more stressful.
Some of the longest lasting businesses in metro Detroit are its family markets and garden centers, founded decades ago. Many still can be visited at their original locations. Impressively, there might not be many other businesses that have lasted longer than Kutchey Family Market. It has been part of the fabric of the city of Warren since the early 1800s. The original farm and store were located at 3202 East 10 Mile Road.
It was eight years ago when David Kutchey decided to sell that land and open a market at 27825 Ryan Road to sell produce and an expanded inventory of flowers and gardening supplies. The land was formerly home to Young’s Garden Mart & Christmas Fantasy, another longtime family farm business in Warren.
Kutchey said they always wanted to stay in Warren when looking for a new spot, as the community has always supported the business. They want to support the community, too.
“We just obviously enjoy the community and we’re so well known in the community,” he said. “People know us from being here for the original farm on 10 Mile. Being there for over 170 years, it’s just been a staple in the community … I don’t want to start all over. We have an excellent reputation and people know us and they trust us, and they know they can get good quality produce when it’s in season. So it was the right thing to do to stay here.”
Over in Troy, Uncle Luke’s Feed Store found its home in the city around 100 years ago in the 1920s selling their products to locals in one form or another, originally as Stiles Feed Store. The market operated out of a shed next to the current location as a farm outlet and hardware store.
The market eventually found its current home at 6691 Livernois Road in 1946, opening as “Uncle Luke’s Print Shop.” It has been there in Troy ever since.

mediums — including ceramics, digital art, drawing, textiles, glass, printmaking, jewelry, metal, mixed media, painting, photography, sculpture, wood and more.
“We will have nearly 300 artists from across the country coming out this year, so more than we’ve had in several years now, and they are a lot of the top artists from around the country.”
Shelby Township-based artist Kandy Myny, of Bit O’ Whimsey Design Studio, is returning to Arts and Apples with her oneof-a-kind mixed media paintings, which she said are designed to bring people joy.
“I love Art & Apples because it’s a hometown show,” she said. “A lot of people know me in the area, so it has a really good crowd and it’s a really beautiful setting in the park.”
Although Myny said her art style had evolved over her 16 years of creating, she said her goal has remained the same.
“I just want to make bright, whimsical, happy art that is positive,” she said.
Myny begins each piece by selecting a background layer of canvas or wood, which she then embellishes in layers using tissue papers, textured papers, fabric, paint, found objects and more. She said the end result is “a happy mixture of materials,” where each layer is visible and patterns and textures peek through. She will be bringing her original paintings to the show, along with prints, cards, coasters and other materials.
New to the show this year is wood artist Tim McEvoy, of Timae Wooden Home Portraits.
“I’ve always liked working with wood, but about eight years ago, I made wooden portraits of our childhood home for my brothers and sisters for Christmas and it just kind of snowballed from there,” McEvoy said.
McEvoy, of Clinton Township, continues to create handcrafted home portraits from wood using photographs supplied by customers. He uses three to five different species of wood in varying thicknesses to simulate the colors and depth of each home. McEvoy plans to bring approximately 10-12 samples of his work to the art fair, and he hopes to connect with those looking to commission him for a custom, made-to-order piece.
“I’ll do just about anything. I’ve done homes, I’ve done businesses and I’ve even done a boat. I’m open to anything,” he said.
Ceramic artist Danielle Rancilio is also thrilled to be a first-time Art & Apples artist.
“I’ve lived in Rochester Hills for almost
12 years, and going to Art & Apples was my introduction to Rochester before we moved here,” Rancilio said in a prepared statement. “It feels very special to participate; I love having the opportunity to participate in events in my community.”
For an inside look into how fine art is created, guests can stop by the Creation Station for live art-making demonstrations, including glass blowing, ceramic wheel throwing and plein air painting from Michigan artists.
Children can enjoy the popular — and free — Meijer Kids Art Zone, which typically offers face painting, inflatables, makeand-take art projects and more.
Those ready to rest their weary legs can head to the bandshell to watch Rochester-area high school bands, local dance companies, and more. All performances will be located on the main stage in Rochester Municipal Park, and all are family-friendly, according to organizers.
Festivalgoers can also pay to sample a variety of offerings from different food vendors throughout the weekend.
“One thing we really tried to emphasize this year is encouraging our food vendors to have apple-based products. Almost every food vendor is going to have something apple-related on their menu,” Hayes said.
The Art & Apples Festival is the PCCA’s signature fundraiser to support the nonprofit’s art classes for kids and adults, free art exhibitions, art market, summer camps, and community outreach through its Art Anywhere program.
A suggested $5 tax-deductible donation per person at each entrance to the festival will provide funding for the PCCA, which works year-round to promote the arts.
“The Art & Apples Festival is Paint Creek Center for the Arts’ biggest fundraiser of the year,” Hayes said.
Art & Apples will be open 2-7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 5; 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 6; and 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 7, in Rochester Municipal Park. Organizers said dogs are not allowed in the park during special events.
Free shuttle transportation to and from Rochester High School, 1361 Walton Blvd. in Rochester Hills, will be provided by OPC Social & Activity Center’s transportation services with wheelchair lift-equipped buses for accessibility for individuals with disabilities.

when she got the call from the Metroparks team and the conversations about what it could be and look like.
She said the sturgeon is one of her favorite creatures.
“Because they are dinosaurs that live among us,” Cassells said.
She went on to stress the importance of preserving the habitat and commented on its resilience. Cassells said she is thrilled the piece is in the park and she thanked multiple people during her speech.
She said they had three public workshops where people could interact with the
went and I talked with them, and they gave me multiple choices, and I ultimately settled on building storage cubbies.”
Building the cubbies was an all-handson deck affair. Majchrzak received help on the project from members of both the boy’s Troop 248 and girl’s Troop 1248. The Scouts assembled, painted and mounted the cubbies at the school.
“(The Glen Peters School staff) were really happy about it,” Majchrzak said. “I thought
team and talk about the project. Cassells has completed two other projects like it, but this is the first one outside of Detroit proper.
“I’m really hoping to make this a thing,” Cassells said.
She said she hopes people start to think about their impact on ecosystems because of the art piece.
McMillan said Metroparks staff goals include keeping litter off the ground to protect animals such as the lake sturgeon.
“We hope this piece serves as a great reminder of the importance to recycle and dispose of trash properly,” McMillan said.
McMillan also said they were incredibly honored to work with Cassells and her team to create the piece.

it was a lot of fun to assemble and build, and their reactions to it were pretty good.”
With Eagle Scout rank in hand (minus the court of honor ceremony) and a whole high school career’s worth of eligible Scouting years ahead of him, Majchrzak has no plans on leaving the organization just yet. He plans on sticking around to work on as many merit badges as he can, and he intends to take part in Venture Scouting and Sea Scouting.
His years in Scouting have led to Majchrzak picking up a number of achievements including membership in the Order of the Arrow.
“It’s very fun,” Majchrzak said of his Scouting experience. “I recommend it to everybody to at least try it out. I know not everyone sticks with it. But I think it’s really good because I learned a lot from it.”

Longtime employee Gil Tufts said their longevity in Troy has been due to their loyal customers.
“That’s the secret to our business,” he said. “I’ve got one lady that travels from Petoskey down here, and probably some further. … If you don’t have a loyal customer base and you don’t treat your customers right, you’re not going to be in business and that’s something we always strive to do here.”
Troy also is home to Telly’s Greenhouse & Garden Center at 3301 John R Road, where it was founded in 1978.
Telly’s Greenhouse kind of fell into the family’s lap, according to owner George Papadelis, as they had been neighbors next to an old woman with a greenhouse who then died in 1976. Papadelis’ father, Gust, bought that land in 1977.
Papadelis said the business got its start when, as a kid, it was suggested he and his brother grow plants in the greenhouse and sell them to make money for a family trip to Greece. They then painted a sign and sold flowers from the side of the road, making $1,000.
The business eventually grew and became what it is today, where it took on the name Telly’s, which was the name of Gust Papadelis’ Greek restaurant.
Since its beginnings, Telly’s has grown to include multiple locations in Michigan but currently has its base of operations at its Troy location and in Shelby Township, where they bought several acres of land 15 years ago to grow their flowers and plants. That’s where they do more than 90% of their growing.
That being said, Papadelis said they plan to stay at their Troy home.
“We’re staying here at the Troy location because it’s an excellent location and we’ve developed a property well to accommodate the store and, quite frankly, I feel like we’ve done a lot to promote gardening in the area and sort of get people to appreciate it more and enjoy it more,” he said.
Papadelis said the city of Troy has grown around them, as has the need for plants from a reputable and family-owned garden center.
“We just grew along with that need,” he said. “As the market changed, we adapted to it because the same person that was growing the plants was selling the plants, which is me. So things have changed an awful lot since, of course, we started almost 50 years ago, but we’re still all about plants that we grow, and we love doing that and we’re good at it and we’re very service-oriented. Customers expect to see me here and they expect to get their questions answered accurately and, in most cases, passionately.”
In the case of Kutchey Family Market, the business has made such an impact in Warren that it was designated with a historical marker.
Kutchey said the designation was something that made him proud that he could continue his family’s legacy in Warren.
“It makes me very proud that I can continue on the family legacy that my great grandfather and my grandfather and my father and all them, that when they settled on 10 Mile and that was the original property, and then they started farming, that I can continue that and bring people good quality fruit and vegetables … and continue the legacy and keep supporting the community that supports us,” he said.

CRIME WATCH
Ransacked residence
MACOMB TOWNSHIP — On Aug. 19 at around 1 p.m., Macomb County Sheriff’s Office deputies spoke with two Macomb Township women in the 21000 block of Martineau Drive about their home being “ransacked.”
After the residents left in the late morning, security cameras from a neighboring residence caught a black SUV pulling up. A search of the women’s home found overturned tables and food thrown on the floor, though deputies did not see signs of forced entry.
The women had reported a man peeking through the home’s windows the night before.
Knocks in the night
MACOMB TOWNSHIP — On Aug. 18 at around 7:50 p.m., Macomb County Sheriff’s Office deputies were called to the 49000 block of Monarch Drive to speak with a 62-year-old Macomb Township man about a suspicious situation.
Around 10:45 p.m. the prior night, someone knocked on the front door of the man’s home. Security camera footage showed someone in a hood knocking twice before running off.
Lost license plate
MACOMB TOWNSHIP — On Aug. 18 at around 4:50 p.m., Macomb County Sheriff’s Office deputies were called to the 47000 block of Daisy Drive for a larceny report.
Deputies spoke with a 79-year-old Macomb Township man who said his license plate had gone missing from his car. The man was unsure when the plate went missing.
