Downtown Plymouth Events
Saturday August 17 – a great day to visit Downtown Plymouth!
This Saturday, August 17th, is Free Day at the Plymouth Historical Museum
sponsored by the Plymouth Community Chamber of Commerce. The Museum, at 155
S. Main St., will be open free to the public from 1-4 pm to see their B4TV
exhibit and the entire museum. The admission fee to the museum is normally
$5 person, but on this day for free you get to experience one of the
community’s true gems as you literally walk through the history of our
community. Make sure to come check it out.
The Susan G. Koman 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk will also be coming through
Downtown Plymouth today. Come downtown to cheer on the Breast Cancer Walkers and experience one of the best known cheering sections in the country.
Walkers will come to town from Northville along Sheldon Road to Ann Arbor
Trail; eastbound on AA Trail past Kellogg Park to Union Street; Union to
Church; Church to Main St.; Main St. to Starkweather; and Starkweather out
of town.
Public cheering stations are a great way to show your support along the
route. Encourage walkers and let them know that you are with them every step
of the way. Seeing familiar faces can provide that extra burst of energy
that gets a walker to take that next step or go the next mile. Create
banners, hold up signs, bring some music and spread the love – anything to
make them smile, get energized and keep walking. The designated cheering
station for Plymouth is Station Kellogg Park. The Kellogg fountain will
even by dyed pink!
On some portions of the route you may find areas that are deemed “quiet
zones” which will be indicated by signage on the route. Please assist us in
respecting our neighborhoods and communities during this time.
