80-plus volunteers organize Crazy Cash Night for March 2

They say it takes a village to raise a child. The same goes for organizing an event of this size for Manchester.

Anita Herman, co-chairper-son of the Manchester Kiwanis Club’s Crazy Cash Night said it’s taken more than 80 volunteers ranging from community mem-bers to students to business own-ers to organize the event.

“It is an exciting, safe high-energy experience,” she said. “It involves a lot of members of the

community.”The club’s annual fundraiser

will take place at 6 p.m. March 2 in the former American Legion Hall at 203 Adrian St.

Doors open at 6 p.m. followed by dinner at 7 p.m. The first ball will be drawn at 8 p.m. The first number drawn wins $250 and the last wins the grand prize of $5,000.

This year’s event is close to selling out. Herman estimated as of Feb. 20 there were 10 tickets

left.“If they want to purchase a

ticket, it should be a priority,” she said.

This year’s prizes include three flatscreen televisions, two laptops and four iPads.

In addition to the above mer-chandise, those who come can take part in the silent auction where they’ll have the chance to win prizes such as a rototiller and a leafblower.

They will also have drawings

for prizes donated by community members and local businesses as well as a second-chance table with smaller prizes.

In addition, a 50/25/25 raffle will take place throughout the night.

This year’s proceeds are going to 12 recipients including the Manchester Community Resource Center, Manchester Village Parks Commission,

Trinkle Marsh at Easton Farm is the newest nature preserve opened to the public by Washtenaw County.

The 151-acre property is located in Lima Township, with a newly-constructed parking area and access point on Dancer Road, just north of Trinkle Road.

Trails and a viewing

platform are open now, and interpretive signs are planned. An official open-ing will be held later this year.

The area has been described in ornithology guides, and long known to local bird watchers, as it is home to many uncommon avian species.

“It is one of the few places in the county that you can reliably get a moorhen, most years,”

said Dan Sparks-Jackson, who recently led an Audubon Society field trip to the preserve.

In the winter, it is often visited by Lapland long-spurs and snow buntings.

Tom Freeman, coordi-nator of the Natural Areas Preservation Program for Washtenaw County, added that “it’s a great spot for spring and fall migration,
