Exactly one year ago today, along the Baldwin Corridor on historic land within Orion Township that will always be known as Gingellville, we celebrated the ribbon cutting of Heritage Park and the official transformation of Great Lakes Athletic Club into the Orion Recreation Center .

The special event commemorating these milestones was named Parks & Progress. So, one year later, we're reflecting on the incredible progress these two projects have made in just 365 days. Here's to amazing first years filled with award-winning achievements, growing programs, and lasting community impact for Heritage Park and the Orion Recreation Center!

Every year, Orion Township Parks & Recreation hosts a Veterans Day Luncheon. This year’s luncheon took place in the newly renovated Oak Room at the Orion Recreation Center.

We extend our sincere thanks to this year's donors and sponsors (listed below), whose generosity helped make this annual tradition possible and provided an opportunity for our community to come together in honor of those who have served.

At the beginning of the event, Bob Smith, former U.S. Air Force sergeant, retired Orion Township Fire Department chief, and chair of the Orion Veterans Memorial, reflected on a time in our nation’s history when Veterans returning home from overseas service were not always met with appreciation.

“Thank you for thanking us,” he said.

Bob went on to share the gratitude he feels throughout Orion Township in everyday interactions, including with a waiter at a local restaurant he frequents who always tells him, “Thank you for saving me and making me free.”

“That’s what we are here to do,” Bob said.

He closed with a reminder to all of us, as a community and as a nation, to “come back together and put our arms around each other” in spite of our differences.

Today we recognize those who serve, safeguard, and sacrifice for us all.

We hope this post finds you in a position to put your arms around the Veteran(s) you love today, or, if distance and circumstance don't allow, to hold them close in your heart.

Happy Veterans Day to the men and women who have served and those who continue to serve.

Thank you for saving us and making us free.

🇺🇸

As we reflect on yesterday's General Election, we want to extend our sincere gratitude to the entire Orion Township community.

First, thank you to Orion Township Clerk - Julia Dalrymple and the entire Clerk's Department, our election workers, and volunteers. Elections require countless hours of preparation, coordination, and dedication long before ballots are cast. Your commitment to ensuring a smooth, accessible, and trustworthy election process makes you the unsung heroes of Election Day.

To our residents, thank you for participating in the process and making your voices heard. Regardless of how you voted, you showed up, and your engagement reflects a deep care for our community and its future.

Finally, to our first responders: while the services they provide require voter-approved funding, their commitment to Orion Township is truly priceless. To the men and women of the Orion Township Fire Department and the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, thank you. Every day, you answer the call to serve and protect our community with professionalism, courage, and compassion. Orion Township is stronger, safer, and better because of your dedication to the people you serve.

Thank you, Orion, for your participation, your service, and your commitment to our community.
