This weekend, we start our Lucky 7 charity events – and you, our guests are fortunate indeed.
For you will not only enjoy our company and our delicious made-in-Detroit Italian ice on Saturday and Sunday, but you will give to two worthwhile non-profits – and find joy right by our silver cart.
Saturday, we support Peace Neighborhood Center. Since 1971, Peacehas provided family and youth services to low-income and at-risk individuals and families from summer camps to tutoring to crisis assistance. Peace people will be with us on Detroit Street in Kerrytown from 9 to noon. And to make the day more magical, Gordon

Schott, or Gordo the Magician,will join us, with his mix of tricks and balloon animals.
Sunday, we support Dancing in the Streets. This event takes over Main Street downtown 1 – 7 and teaches us swing dance, waltz, English country dance and more. Or watch belly dancing or join the “Do the Hustle” flash mob at 1:45 p.m.
For several years, we’ve donated to Ann Arbor Community of Traditional Music & Dance, the all-volunteer organization that produces Dancing in the Streets. Children’s art activities and an instrument “zoo” plus a maypole make this a fun family day. Volunteer to help with set-up or tear down too. (Note: The photo is not from Dancing, though it almost could be.)
If this sounds like a joyful opportunity for community support, Mity Nice still needs more performers and musicians for the rest of our charity events. Join the fun-raisers by emailing us at busker@mitynice.com.
So please come out both days – and please plan to show up during the week too to support The Breakfast at St. Andrews (on Wednesday) or FLY Art Center (Friday afternoon). Check our full schedule of Lucky 7 charities or watch our Facebook for other details.
It’s going to be a sweet, sweet charitable Labor Day Weekend!
