February 15, 1981 - The TCA Grand Opening

"Welcome to Tecumseh’s Civic Auditorium! (February 15, 1981)

Tecumseh area residents have every right to be proud of this magnificent, functional, fully-equipped facility. Because of the vision and generosity of a Michigan Foundation, present and future generations will be enriched by the cultural and entertaining events to be presented here.

The enthusiasm and interest thus far exemplified by local organizations and individuals is overwhelming. We thank each and every one of you for your contributions and involvement. May we continue to grow together.

Michigan’s motto: “If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you.” If you seek an outstanding community, come to Tecumseh. If you seek a respite from your toils, we invite you to join us in the exciting events that will be forthcoming, through the efforts of our capable manager, Kathryn VanSickle.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the program prepared for you. We hope you and your family will join us often as we present diversions for your pleasure and benefit."
