Temple Kol Ami Sisterhood hosts a a tutorial on desserts for special diets ($5, goes to support Yad Ezra food bank).
2. Two local government meetings this week — including the West Bloomfield Township Board of Trustees and the West Bloomfield Planning Commission meetings — have been canceled due to the death of West Bloomfield Police Department Officer Patrick O'Rourke in the line of duty. The Sylvan Lake City Council meets Wednesday at 7 p.m..

4. Your neighbors will be sure to try and take advantage of the mild conditions with several outdoors events. Keego Harbor Skate and Activity Night should provide some active fun for children and families, while the Great West Bloomfield Camp Out (sold out) should be fun and informative.
