Due to the unprecedented challenges the COVID-19 pandemic has brought to businesses in the retail and service sectors, Governor Gretchen Whitmer has declared Saturday, September 27, as the official “Downtown Day.”
This proclamation comes at the request of the Michigan Downtown Association (MDA) to boost support for downtown areas across the state that have been hit hard. Residents are encouraged to visit their local downtowns on Saturday to shop, eat, join in activities, or lend a hand through volunteering.
