Mike Luna, Board Treasurer 

Please share a bit about your family: 

My wife Adrienne and I have been married for over 25 years. We have 2 daughters who graduated from LOHS. Our oldest will move to Midland, TX and start her aviation management career. Our youngest will attend University of Pittsburgh in the Fall. We love Lake Orion and the community which has given so much to us.

What is your profession? 

I’m a tax planning specialist.

How long have you been on the NOCC board? 

I have been on the board for 14 years.

Why did you want to become involved with the NOCC? 

One of my core values is community involvement. I believe we can have a meaningful impact on the community by investing in it and nurturing our future leaders.

What is your favorite NOCC program? 

No Vape November. We can have a positive influence and our young adult and student community. It takes a village and commitment by all to be a positive influence.

What is your favorite thing to do in the Lake Orion/Oxford area? 

Relaxing at the lake, enjoying free time with friends and family and biking/running the trails.

     Registration for our 2025 Level Up Camp closes soon! Youth entering 6th grade at Oxford and Lake Orion Community Schools for the 2025-2026 school year are invited to join the NOCC for a 4-day camp. Camp will run Monday through Thursday, 9:00am-1:00pm, during the following dates:

Your camper will play games, create art, and participate in group activities while becoming better prepared for their middle and high school years. Topics covered include resiliency, goal setting, communication skills, dealing with stress, drug and alcohol refusal skills, and more. This is also an excellent opportunity for your child to become familiar with the middle school setting, practice opening lockers, and meet new friends that will be a part of their middle school experience. Campers will have so much fun they won’t even realize they are learning skills that will strengthen their future!

Students must register under the school they will be attending in the fall. There is a $50 deposit upon enrollment that can be reimbursed or donated to the NOCC at the camp’s end.

Registration for our Level Up Camp is open at noccmi.org.

     Do you have a rising or current high schooler who is interested in mental health, volunteering, or working to make their community a healthier place? The Youth Action Board might be right for them!

Throughout the school year, YAB members work together to create school-wide initiatives to promote a mentally healthy, substance-free environment. Members will meet new friends with common goals and help to plan super fun school activities!
