Clay Target League

Students in the Port Huron area are taking aim this spring as part of Michigan’s High School Clay Target League, with local teams from Port Huron Northern, St. Clair, Algonac, Marine City, Memphis, and Yale joining more than 2,400 athletes statewide in a nine-week season. The competition runs through May 24th, and many area shooters are expected to move on to the state tournament in June, with a chance to qualify for a national championship in July. The sport gives students an affordable way to build confidence, teamwork, and shooting skills.

Port Huron Drops Road Conversion Plan

Port Huron residents are keeping their streets just the way they are. City officials say plans to convert parts of Union and Court streets from one-way to two-way traffic are now off the table. The proposal covered the stretch between 7th and 19th streets and aimed to slow traffic and make the area more walkable. Even though a traffic study showed no major concerns, strong pushback from nearby homeowners and community members ultimately led the city to scrap the plan.
