YPSILANTI, MI - Dawn Farm will celebrate its 44th year of of helping community members fight addiction and achieving long-term recovery during its annual Dawn Farm Jamboree.

The event takes place from 1 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 10 at the nonprofit located at 6633 Stony Creek Road in Ypsilanti.

The Jamboree is a free, family-focused event to celebrate the large recovering community of Washtenaw County. Activities include kids' games, hayrides, horse rides, live music by Abigail Stauffer and Spencer Michaud, a yard sale, food trucks and a live and silent auction full of items donated by the community.

Admission to the event is free, but all proceeds raised will go to providing treatment scholarships at Dawn Farm.

The mission of Dawn Farm is to assist addicts and alcoholics in achieving long-term recovery. Workers at the nonprofit identify and remove the barriers that addicts face in entering the recovering community.

"We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the South University Area Association for their donation of 97 pieces of art work from the Ann Arbor Art Fair," Dawn Farm Development Director Olivia Vigiletti said.

Other notable auction items include tickets to Disney World, an autographed football by Jim Harbaugh, tickets to the first Detroit Red Wings game in Little Caesar's Arena, and a week's stay at a cabin in Northern Michigan, as well as dozens of gift cards to local businesses in the community.
