Oakland County to roll out online program to help those with student debt
Two years ago, Brendan Johnson at age 28 became the youngest countywide elected official in southeast Michigan.

C. ...

I Prevail – Credit Union One Amphitheater
Detroit Local band aka I Prevail just came to Credit Union One Amphitheater and burned the house down with their talent! As someone who grew up in Michigan and watched these guys play tiny basement shows to now co-headlining an amphitheater is absolutely huge and shows how much hard work and dedication can really pay off! The band of course would not stop thanking their fans for being the reason they are able to tour and be a band for the last 10 years! They also of coursed talked about the famous cover of Blank Space that went viral and how thankful that their fans who found them because of that cover are still here to this day and supporting them since then! I also loved seeing Lizzy Hale of Halestorm coming out and performing their new song, “Can You See Me In The Dark” live! It was absolutely incredible and honestly sounded just like the recording that I listen to from Spotify! I Prevail of course made jokes about liking different hockey teams and other various sports but at the end of the day, they wouldn’t be here without all the fans! If you can, I highly recommend seeing IPrevail, Halestorm, Hollywood Undead, and Fit For A King on this current summer tour!

Ennis Rakestraw avoids non-participation lists to start training camp
The Lions rookies reported for training camp duty on Saturday. And while media access to training camp doesn’t begin until the first full practice on Wednesday, the absence of any news from Detroit on Saturday is good news. That’s because teams are required to release if any players are placed on the NFI or PUP lists when they report and get their initial physicals. As of Sunday morning, there are still no indications that any of the rookies will be placed on the lists, which would prevent them from participating in anything on the field. For second-round cornerback Ennis Rakestraw, no news is very good news. Rakestraw had offseason core muscle surgery, also known as sports hernia surgery. The CB from Missouri was limited in reps during OTAs and spring camps. A clean bill of health means Rakestraw will be free to compete for reps and his place in the radically overhauled Lions cornerback room. Update: On Sunday afternoon, the Lions placed fourth-round rookie OL Giovanni Manu on the NFI list. RelatedDetroit Lions UDFA rookies ranked by chances of making the team
