The Village of Morrice is located in southwestern Shiawassee County, Michigan. While mostly a rural community, it takes great pride in its strong sense of traditional and patriotic values.

Morrice offers more than what most would expect of such a small community. It has its own school system, post office, and police officers. Several businesses garnish the downtown district, including a restaurant, hardware store, and other sought-after services. It is also home to the Morrice Community Senior Center, which provides a wide-range of services, including rental space for receptions, open houses, and group gatherings.

One of the most popular traditions of Morrice is the annual Morrice Homecoming Festival, which features a parade, entertainment and races, food, craft shows, and much more. Every year, the festival holds a raffle awarding prizes, as well as the exciting fireworks display that tops off the one-day event. Whether you are a resident or a visitor to the Morrice area, you are warmly welcomed to come and be a part of this engaging event.
