Whitmore Lake Area Human ServicesWeekly Recovery Dharma
This weekly meeting brings together a peer led community that approaches recovery by cultivating inner wisdom and honoring each person’s path, grounded in traditional Buddhist teachings.
Monday Evening Migration
Take a relaxed walk through the wooded trails at Matthaei Botanical Gardens to look and listen for birds moving north. The route follows well maintained dirt paths and covers up to about two miles. The pond often hosts waterfowl and shorebirds, and the surrounding habitats offer opportunities to see warblers, thrushes, flycatchers, the occasional cuckoo, and other migrants, along with local resident species. Everyone is welcome, and it is fine to participate in only part of the walk and leave when needed. New birders are encouraged, and many pairs of binoculars will be available to borrow. The walk is led by James Weir. Meet at the main entrance of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens building.
Matthaei Botanical GardensOpen Mic (Unplugged)
An unplugged open mic where poetry and songs take center stage. Poets and singer songwriters from the community share their work in a welcoming setting at Dzanc House.
