Lansing SWAG

This past weekend, SWAG teamed up with Southside Community Coalition to celebrate Earth Day the best way we know how, by showing up and putting in the work.

Together, we cleaned up Beacon Park, the surrounding SSCC areas, the Beacon soccer field, and the Town Square. We also kicked off construction on a new community food pantry box, something that will continue to give long after the day was over.

Clean-ups are always more than just picking up trash for us. They’re a chance to connect, build, and take action in the same community we live, work, and play in.

Appreciate everyone who came out and made it happen. Special thanks to Capital Area Housing Partnership for bringing out the tool truck and the City of Lansing for providing additional tools.

Stop by tomorrow to volunteer for a Spring Clean Up. We’ll be at South Side Community Coalition from 10am-12pm cleaning up around the Holmes & Pleasant Grove area!

From s’mores and hot cocoa to pony rides, music, dancing, and Santa's smile. South Lansing really showed up and showed out at Holiday in the Square!

Events like this don’t happen on their own, and we’re so grateful for the incredible community partners and small businesses who made this year's event possible including the City of Lansing, Michigan - Government, Rathbun Insurance, Lansing Board of Water & Light, Strange Matter Coffee Co., DJ E-Nyce, DreamWorld Studios for the Arts EnHarmony Productions LLC Chamberlin Pony Rides, Cameron Warren Photography, Top Shelf Party Rental , Cirea Strode, and so many more who poured their hearts into this day.

Thank you for helping us bring holiday cheer to our neighborhood!

The s’mores station at Holiday in the Square stays BUSY — and for good reason. 🔥🍫

There’s nothing better than warming your hands over the fire and making a gooey marshmallow treat.

It’s cozy, it’s fun, and it’s one of those small moments that makes Holiday in the Square feel special. Join us on December 6 from 4pm - 6pm at the Pleasant Grove Town Square (behind 1910 Food Market)!
