This Weekend in Mason, Michigan - Hometown USA

Since you already have Mother's Day covered by buying your gifts at Spring Fling last Saturday, head over to the Eden United Brethren Church on Eden Road south of Mason past the High School and Kipp Road. If you're coming from the south, they're just a quarter of a mile north of Barnes Road. Why? Big Book Sale! Hundred are priced to sell. Friday, May 12 from 9 to 4 and Saturday, May 13 from 9 to 1.

And if Mom needs to feel special before Mother's Day, send her over to Kean's Store at 406 S. Jefferson on Saturday betwen 10 and 2 for their "Pampered Mom's Day." Refreshments, jewelry cleaning, chair massage, nail consultant, door prizes, and much more. Kean's Store -- Mason's best-known "destination store."

This Weekend in Mason, Michigan - Hometown USA

This weekend is the big Spring Fling, the 23rd annual arts and crafts show on the Courthouse Square in downtown Mason. Hosted by the Mason Area Chamber of Commerce, the event runs from 9 AM to 4:30 PM with over 100 booths and festival food. Stop by the MACC Ambassadors booth "across from the cannon" for details on other events in town that day. See the Corvette convertible the Chamber is raffling off -- at its first public display by the Chamber booth. Friday evening is the 5 K Run, there is a craft fair at the high school, the Historical Society is doing a pie sale and a yard sale, the Animal Shelter has a program, the Friends of the Library are having a book sale, etc.

This weekend continues to brings thoughts of springtime and outdoor projects. Ace Hardware at 340 S. Cedar Street (676-4900) has been a big help this past week in getting odds and ends together for our event. You might also want to stop in or call the store to purchase products for your own special project.
