Letter to our Sponsors, Supporters, and Readers:
We are excited about the activities and involvement of so many of Pontiac’s residents, community, social groups, and local businesses who are coming together to make Pontiac a City of Destination.
Many have a clear mission, vision, and plan that speaks to Quality-of-Life Issues, jobs, parks, and environment clean up, Business Development, and a strong Resident Community.
Our great city called Pontiac is culturally rich with great Artists, Architecture, Museums, History, and Personal successes, Pontiac Schools have graduated some of our city, county, and state great leaders, teachers, and entrepreneurs.
We have a strong and improving school system, active Young Adults working on the issues and solutions of the City for future generations.
In addition, Pontiac is a strong Religious Community, with a sustained value system, choirs, rappers, entertainers, poets, composers, writers, and authors….Yes, there is a lot to get excited about and we at the Greater Pontiac Community Coalition /Committee of Fifty are proud to be a part of this excitement…..
