July and August flew by so quickly, I’ve been remiss in publishing a thank you to everyone who has donated to my efforts during the last few months. With the Sounds and Sights Festival in July and all of the Chelsea Community Fair stories in August, the end of summer is always the busiest time of the year for me.

I’ve heard from lots of people who said they always enjoy my fair coverage and I’m already planning improvements for next year. In addition to my first time riding in a parade as the Small Business Leadership winner, I was thrilled to discover that I’d also taken a champion rosette for my cow cross-stitch.

It was such fun hearing so many people yell “We love Chelsea Update,” as I rode by during the parade. Thank you, everyone. And, I’ve already picked out the large design I will stitch and enter next year. This time, it’s a sheep theme.

Below is a very long and super overdue list of folks who have donated to my efforts publishing Chelsea Update 7 days a week for this community. Thank you so much for your support and donations are always welcome in any amount made out to Chelsea Update and mailed to 18829 Bush Road, Chelsea, MI 48118.

Publishing this news site is my full-time job and I could not continue to do it without the generosity of readers.
