Box Village Friday Oct. 9


Ever wonder what it is like to be HOMELESS? Join Manistee County youth as they take to the street and spend the night in cardboard boxes at the Seng lot located on the west end of River Street near the fountain in Manistee. The BOX VILLAGE will set up at 6pm. The public is invited to stop down and be part of this event for Poverty Week in Manistee County.


Events at the BOX VILLAGE include a soup kitchen, barrel fires, free movies on homelessness, and other events.


It is not too late to sign up to participate. Simply contact Casman Academy or the Staircase Youth Services office - - both located on Ninth Street in Manistee. 231-690-7367.
Adult volunteers are also welcome.
