There aren’t enough words in the English language to sum up how marvelous our dog of the week Max is. He’s magnificent, magical, memorable, motivated, and mischievous. The list could go on and on.

Max is about ten months old and searching for his new family.

It was a chance coming together: Mill Creek Garden Club, a need for more vegetable planters at the Community Care Garden and a young man willing to build them. Enter Colton Gabel, currently a junior at Jackson High School, and his supportive parents Christy and Preston.

At our community events, the Kiwanis Club of Mill Creek created a “Kindness Wall,” where individual acts of kindness are written on cards and attendees and participants are challenged to take a card and meet the kindness act written on it.

We want to share our Kindness Wall with all of you – virtually – until the day comes that we can all come together stronger than before!
