Drive Jackson Community Coffee Hours. 7:30 AM to 9 AM.  These open-house style coffee hours are an opportunity to get a brief overview of the finalized Drive Jackson plan, learn about next steps and early implementation priorities, ask questions and share ideas in a relaxed setting and connect with others who care about Jackson County’s future. All coffee hours will follow a similar format. Lean Rocket Lab, 133 W. Michigan Ave., Jackson.

Stuff the Bus.  Michigan Center Transportation, along with staff & students, is collecting donations to help the Jackson Co. Animal Shelter. If you go to their website, they have a Wish List. You may drop off your donations at 400 S. State St., Transportation Department, across from the High School, between 7 am & 5 pm the week of February 23rd through the 27th. You may also send them in with your children, as we have donation boxes in all three school buildings. Our four legged friend’s thank you for your donations.

“The Last Man on Earth” (1964).  7 PM.  Join us for a big-screen screening of The Last Man on Earth (1964), the atmospheric science-fiction classic starring Vincent Price in one of his most haunting roles. Based on Richard Matheson’s novel I Am Legend, the film follows Dr. Robert Morgan as he navigates a desolate world overrun by nocturnal, vampire-like creatures after a devastating pandemic. Alone by day and hunted by night, Morgan searches for others and a cure, all while wrestling with his own diminishing hope. Influential in the evolution of zombie and post-apocalyptic cinema, The Last Man on Earth is a compelling blend of suspense, mood, and introspection—an ideal choice for shared viewing in our historic theatre. Michigan Theatre, Downtown Jackson.

Winter Lacrosse Workouts for Youth and New Players. 5:30 PM.  New to lacrosse or still building confidence on the field? Our **Winter Lacrosse Workouts** are the perfect way to learn, grow, and have fun during the off-season—no experience needed! These sessions focus on the **basics**, skill-building, and teamwork in a positive, supportive environment where players can learn at their own pace. What players will work on:  Fundamental stick skills. Footwork, balance & coordination. Age-appropriate strength & conditioning. Game basics taught in a fun, encouraging way.  This is a great opportunity for kids to stay active, make friends, and fall in love with the game while building confidence for the spring season.
