Photo Gallery: Behind The Scenes at the Saline Craft Show

We went to the Craft Show Saturday and trained our camera on the local folks who worked in the lots, at the doors and where ever they were needed

The Saline Spring Craft show attracts thousands of people from all over southeast Michigan and beyond. It happens three times a year without a hitch because of the workers and volunteers who work in the parking lots, at the doors, in the activities room and all around Saline Middle School. Saturday morning, as shoppers descended upon the craft show, we trained our cameras on the Saline area residents who spent their Saturday working at the craft show. Some of the people working the show are employed by Community Education. Others are members of Saline area organizations who work the event in exchange for a donation to their group. Others are just volunteers eager to help.
