Attacks on civil rights

 Nearly two dozen concerned residents from across Oakland and Macomb counties participated in a rally on Aug. 18 along M-24 and Clarkston Road to bring visibility to recent attacks on the civil rights of Americans. Residents from Addison and Brandon townships, Oxford, Lake Orion, Clarkston, and Oakland Township held signs in the hot sun in […]

Please play our fight song each day

As we draw closer to the beginning of the school year, I want to take this opportunity and make a request of the Oxford High School administration. I believe I may be able to garner public support, through the publishing of this request, via the Leader. I speak for myself, but hope to also be […]

Thank you!

Thanks Don for the article about the 80th birthday reunion (July 20, 2022). The gang is anxious to do it annually, but we will see about that. It was certainly a well written article and I appreciate it. One of the main reasons I moved here, other than being on a lake and near nature, […]

It’s the voice of the Oxford community

Dear Editor, May The Oxford Leader continue for as long as time goes on. It’s the voice of the Oxford Community, it tells the history of the community and the many residents who made it what it is today. It speaks for the people, their news, concerns, thoughts and memories. The good, honest reporters of […]

Looking for support

Dear Editor, It had been four months now since the Oxford High School shooting. Almost $2,000,000 has been raised by caring onlookers, for distribution to victims and their families. People harmed should always be our first concern. However, now is time to especially recognize the four who left us permanently as a result of this […]

Readers don’t want to read that

Dear Editor, This is in response to the article last week on the “Crumbley’s week in court”. I was watching golf on Saturday and my wife decided to share the information on what The Leader reported, which is good reporting and need to know if you desire, about what the alleged Oxford school shooter is […]

Long live The Leader
