Confluence will bring you stories from across Bay City, Midland, Saginaw, and points in between — stories about the people pushing for change, the projects gaining momentum, and the connections forming between communities.
Confluence follows the flow of stories across the Tittabawassee, Saginaw, and Kawkawlin corridors, capturing the interconnected momentum of a region of 400,000.
