Friday night, Port Sanilac’s Sanilac County Historic Village and Museum hosted a special Candlelight Concert featuring local St. Clair resident and Turkish guitarist Mert Sela. For two hours guests enjoyed a beautiful mix of classical and flamenco guitar under flickering candlelight at 228 S Ridge St. Tickets were $10, supporting the museum’s upkeep and community programs. This event highlights the museum’s ongoing efforts to bring arts and culture to the region without state or local funding.

Early last week in Watertown Township, a crash involving a fuel truck and a passenger SUV caused one driver to be injured. A Sandusky man driving a Buick Enclave failed to stop at a stop sign on French Line Road and hit a northbound fuel truck at South Sandusky Road. The Buick rolled over and landed in a nearby yard. Emergency crews took the injured driver to McLaren Hospital in Port Huron. The truck driver was unharmed and left the scene on his own. The Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office is still investigating.
