I Love the '80s Murder Mystery

Greenmead Historical Park is hosting an '80s-themed murder mystery 3-5:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 26. Tensions run rampant as backstage secrets spill out into the spotlight with like, totally tragic results! This isn’t an episode of Miami Vice! This is like… murder. It’s up to you to bust it like a ghost, for sure! Peg your jeans, slouch your socks, flash some neon, put on way too much eyeliner, and get that hair up! You are going to solve this crime in style. No time to be Too Shy! You are a Smooth Operator, and you know to listen to those Careless Whispers. It’s time to put on your Sunglasses at Night and relax. Time after time… you will solve the case. A retro '80s-themed meal will be included.

Advance registration is required for $60/resident, $65/non-resident. Register through our online portal.

#RecreatingTheRec

A portion of Hubbard Road, south of Five Mile Road, will be closed from approximately Oct. 21-Nov. 1 to complete some Kirksey Recreation Center construction items. In the coming weeks, the road will be closed for construction, with traffic being detoured around the area. A map, date range, and detailed detour route will be provided soon.

The Main Gyms will close in July 2025 once the new West Gym is complete. The full project is expected to be completed in December 2025. You can visit LivoniaBuilt.org to see the specific timeline for each phase. For more details, check out our Frequently Asked Questions.
