There may be some confusion in our Township regarding the authenticity of ‘official’ Facebook pages that are on the web. The Oakland Township Watchers editors have received an email from Oakland Township administration requesting that we clarify which sites are the only official sites of the Township.
Here is the official Township Facebook website:
Here is the official Township Parks and Recreation Facebook website:

Similarly, the group of seven candidates for the Parks and Recreation Commission, who are endorsed by the longstanding members of the current Parks and Recreation Commission, and call their group “Park Protectors”, have a website and a Facebook page. Their rival candidates have a surprisingly similar Facebook name.
Here are the links for the “Real” Oakland Township Park Protectors.

Please visit their website and Facebook page to learn more about these seven candidates, then make every effort to remember their names for the August 2nd election.

Thank you for clarifying this. It appears that someone is trying to confuse voters as to what Oakland Township and the Parks and Recreation Commission are posting on Facebook and who the real Park Protectors are. Actually, someone’s created more than one fake Facebook page using the Park Protectors name. The Park Protectors website, http://www.parkprotectors.org, has their 7 short bios and endorsements from the 4 retiring Parks commissioners who created our amazing park system, as well as event info. So it’s probably the most thorough information for voters on the real Park Protectors. The safest way to get to the Facebook page for the real Park Protectors is to click on the Facebook link at their website, http://www.parkprotectors.org.
