The Ann Arbor News had a wonderful article on the adopt-a-park program in Ypsilanti as it relates to Prospect Park and the four neighborhood associations that are working hard there.

Last night Wireless Ypsi broke 25,000 users.
If you were to plot the data on a graph and then fit a curve, we can safely project that we’ll break 1,000,000 users in about seventeen days, or something like that.

City Of Champion Parks

This past weekend cemented the greatest sports year since 1979 as the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Detroit Red Wings on the road in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Penguins became the first road team to win a Game 7 since the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Baltimore Orioles to win the World Series. They became the first hockey team do so since the 1971 Montreal Canadiens beat the Chicago Blackhawks. They also became the first hockey team ever to win the Cup after losing the first two games of a series twice. When you couple this with the amazing comeback by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl in February of this year, Pittsburgh is indeed the City of Champions once again.

Word on the street is that Wireless Ypsi has been nominated as Innovative Business of the Year in Michigan for 2009. The first question I was asked upon telling something this was, “Was this self-nominated?” The answer is no. Apparently this award is given by the Michigan Business Review.
