Those of us who attended Detroit Public Schools and were student-athletes might have felt a twinge of envy sometimes when we competed in sports against our suburban peers.

The fourth annual Marshmallow Drop and Family Resource Fair goes down this weekend in District 3 and halal marshmallows will rain from the sky.

Other festivities include free meals (including halal goat), live music, a DJ, horse, pony and train rides, a video game truck, bounce platforms and more.
