Lagniappe is a Creole word for "a little something extra," and it embodies the spirit of giving and appreciation.

Lights that cover the buildings of Downtown Rochester were turned on at 7 p.m. Anchor Glenda Lewis, Chief Meteorologist Dave Rexroth, and reporter Brett Kast from 7 News Detroit broadcasted live from the celebration throughout the evening.
