The 2010 Labor Day Festival truly is “Handmade and Homegrown”, the theme of the event this year. The volunteer organizers did an outstanding job of planning interesting things to see and do, including urban camping in Veterans’ Memorial Park. Support the city; support the volunteers; support the festival. Buy a beer from the Hamtramck Police Reserves this weekend.
