West Bloomfield Fundraiser Helps Single Mom and More This Week

A fundraiser at Gotta Dance will help the mother of a child who has a serious illness.

It's Monday, and that means we've put together this list of things going on in West Bloomfield to help make your week a little brighter, easier and more fun. For a full list of things to do this week, look at the Patch calendar of events.

1. Happening this week

Plans to add outdoor seating and overhead doors go before the West Bloomfield Township planning commission today. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. Tuesday and includes review of plans to modify a proposed clock tower for the development in the northwest corner of Maple and Orchard Lake Roads.

2. Help others

Tickets are on sale for a fundraiser at Gotta Dance benefitting Karen, a single mother of two, whose daughter, Kali, is suffering an inoperable AVM (Arteriovenous malformation) in her brain. The June 14 event includes wine, shopping and fun.

3. Get involved

Volunteers are needed to plan this 2014 event, sponsored by the Greater West Bloomfield Historical Society. Call Gina Gregory at 248-622-7570.

4. Local Voice of the Week

This local business person posted his concerns about a recent West Bloomfield School Board bid award with a blog post. If you've got something on your mind, turn it into a blog post here: westbloomfield.patch.com/blogs/new

5. Save the date

Enjoy lots of family fun and sign up for summer reading during this Saturday event at the Main Library. Petting zoo and pony rides, bounce houses, mini-golf and more are part of this event, which starts at noon.

Corrections: The name of Kali's medical condition in item 2, which was misidentified due to incorrect information, has been corrected. In addition, the date of the Planning Commission in item 1 has been corrected.
