                              Dear Friends,

                              I'd like to extend my warmest greetings to everyone
                              attending the 38  Annual Celebration of Dr. Martin
                                                th
                              Luther King, Jr. Day hosted by the Dr. Martin Luther
                              King, Jr. Commission of Mid-Michigan.

                              With this year’s theme of uplifting our nation from the
                              quicksand of racial injustice, I would like to take this time
                              to recognize all the wonderful work that this peace walk
                              has accomplished. I am truly thankful for your hard work
                              and dedication to empowering the Black citizens of our
                              state. As the largest and longest established event in the
                              state of Michigan honoring Dr. King, there is no doubt
                              that this event serves as a resource to countless people
                              and organizations in Michigan and beyond. You will

                              surely continue to positively influence those around you
                              for centuries to come.

                              Again, I would like to send my best wishes to all those
                              attending the 38  Annual Celebration of MLK Day.
                                                th
                              Please accept my best wishes for an enjoyable and
                              memorable event, and may you continue to have success
                              in every endeavor.

                              Sincerely,
