Visit the 57th annual Pioneer Day at the Waterloo Farm and Dewey School museums from noon to 5 p.m. Oct. 13 for some old-fashioned fun in the spirit of a time long ago.
The annual event features horse-drawn wagon rides, pretzels and pies from the farm wagon, and molasses cookies and cider from the Bake House. Fall decorations from the Flower Barn and the famous Waterloo Bean Soup from the concessions also will be available. Dewey School will be open for tours and a little schoolin’, so stop in.
Music will be provided by Mike Evans and his banjo, Askin’ for Trouble, North Creek Fiddlers, Blackberry Jam, The Wayward Dirks and others.
About 50 vendors and demonstrators will be set up around the grounds, such as Swallowtail Pottery, soap making, make your own rope, basket making, quilts, flint knapping and the list goes on and on.
Pioneer Day has grown some during its 57 years, but it still remains true to the memory and the spirit of the early days in the region.
The Waterloo Farm Museum is at 13493 Waterloo-Munith Road, Grass Lake, Mich. It is 6 miles south of Stockbridge, 10 miles northwest of Chelsea and 15 miles north of Grass Lake.

SRSLY to offer free parenting workshop in Stockbridge to improve family bonding, reduce risk of teenage drug use
10:00 -12:00
2019.10.16
Stockbridge Activity Center
305 W Elizabeth St, Stockbridge, MI 49285, USA

https://stockbridgecommunitynews.com/event/srsly-to-offer-free-parenting-workshop-in-stockbridge-to-improve-family-bonding-reduce-risk-of-teenage-drug-use-2-2-2/
In a workshop series called Guiding Good Choices being offered in Stockbridge, parents will learn how to improve family bonding and reduce the risk of drug use among their children. From September 25 to October 23, this five-week program will be offered every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to noon at the Stockbridge Activity Center, located at 305 W Elizabeth Street in Stockbridge.
Guiding Good Choices is an interactive program for parents of children in grades 4 through 8. In a lively and open atmosphere, parents will learn specific strategies to help their children avoid drug use and other adolescent problem behaviors, and develop into healthy adults. Parents will learn to set clear family guidelines on drugs, learn and practice skills to increase their children’s family involvement, and strengthen family bonds.
Dr. J. David Hawkins and Dr. Richard F. Catalano of the University of Washington developed the Guiding Good Choices program. Their research has shown that when children are bonded to parents, school and non-drug using peers, they are less likely to become involved in drug use or other behavior problems.
SRSLY and St. Joseph Mercy Chelsea are sponsors of the workshop. This series is free to attend, however, registration is required. Childcare is available upon request. Parents that attend all five sessions will be entered into a drawing to win a gift card.
To register for the workshop or for more information, please visit www.srslystockbridge.org/ggc/ or contact Emily Griswold at 734-593-6806 or Emily.griswold@stjoeshealth.org.
