June 7, 2024, we gathered at Jimmy Johns Field for our annual ballgame.  It was a wonderful night to enjoy the ballgame. Our group loved being at ground level with the players and just to the left was the pitcher's warmup.  The field has such a friendly and relaxing atmosphere, under the umbrella canopies.  Kids, both small and big could run the bases after the game and then there were fireworks!  It was a wonderful night, and we hope to see you next year.

On April 23, 2024, our industry experts, Kevin Yost and Patrick Bresser dazzled us with their knowledge and shared their expertise on getting the most out of the USPS Promotions Programs and mail preparations for political and non-profit mailings.   It was wonderful to see the diverse group of attendees from individual mailers to mail providers.  I believe we all have a better understanding of discounts and how to best utilize them this year and into 2025.  We have included the presentations and the recording of the event.   Thank you for participating and we look forward to seeing you at upcoming events.  www.detroitpcc.com

On March 23, 2024, The Detroit PCC partnered with The Detroit River Project (DRP) for a Special Stamp Dedication ceremony commemorating the Underground Railroad (UGRR) at St. Matthew's & St. Joseph's Episcopal Church in Detroit, Michigan. We honored Detroiter William Lambert, known as the Detroit Underground Railroad Stationmaster, and one of ten Freedom Fighters featured in the UGRR Stamp Collection. Thank you to all the speakers and everyone who made this event a success. More pics coming soon at www.detroitpcc.com.

The Detroit (PCC) Postal Customer Council, Michigan One District, celebrated our annual Holiday Gala December 8, 2023, at Sindbad's Marina.  Our guests enjoyed delicious food and beverages, and the spirit of the holiday was prompted by our on-site Santa who sang his way into our hearts and got the whole room in the holiday spirit.  Having live sax music during our meal was so warming and cozy and allowed us time to mingle. We all had a wonderful time with raffle and holiday games.
