Plans are underway for the 5th Annual Huron Valley Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. Day Celebration, and the HV MLK Day Committee
is looking to expand our list of members and volunteers.  2010’s
events will capitalize on the best aspects of previous years’
celebrations while also having a greater concentration in the area
of Service.  This year’s theme of One World One Family – United
in Service will be reflected in the Art/Essay/Speech competition as
well as the events of the holiday.  On Monday, January 18th,
downtown Milford will once again host the March on Main Street at
1:00 p.m.  After the March, participants can continue to honor the
holiday by attending the Volunteer Fair at Milford High School,
from 2:00-5:00, where a myriad of volunteering opportunities will
be on display.  Local citizens young and old will find dozens of
ways to give back to our own Beloved Community throughout the
year, and the HV MLK Day Committee hopes to see lots of people
take advantage of the event.  Dr. King was famous for saying that
all citizens can be great because all citizens can serve; we hope
that 2010’s MLK Day Celebration will allow many of our local
community to discover that greatness within themselves by
attending our events and finding ways to pledge time and energy
for the betterment of the lives of others.



Community members, organizations and businesses are welcome
to be involved in the planning and execution of the event for 2010.
This is an amazing opportunity to serve by example, encourage
discussion, demonstrate how we can learn from and celebrate our
differences while embracing our commonalities living together
peaceably. How we plan and facilitate this community event is as
important as the event itself, so get involved!  
the principle of love.

The question is not
whether we will be
extremist but what
kind of extremist
will we be.

I have a dream that
my four little
children will one day
live in a nation
where they will not
be judged by the
color of their skin,
but by the content
of their character.
-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.


I have a dream that
one day this nation
will rise up and live
out the true meaning
of its creed:
"We hold these
truths to be
self-evident: that all
men are created
equal."
