Hello Alan!
Thanks so much for
visiting our Web site. We hope you learned something and
want to come and visit us this summer. Our events page
has been updated recently with our 2006 events, so if
you have not viewed that, please do so. Our events are
on the same weekend every year.

Pioneer Day -
June 17 - this year will be a presentation on the Port
Austin Reef Lighthouse at 11:00. At 1:00 - 'Do You Know
Me?' a presentation of the Huron City archives - we are
looking for help identifying some of the local people in
our photos. At 3:00 will be a presentation on Kinde
Michigan. We also have food available and local
historical societies set up tents on the grounds to sell
their items and relate stories about their
area.

On July 29 in our Red Letter Day, which is
luncheon on the lawn of Seven Gables with a small
musical combo playing. Free tours of the buildings are
included in the $50 ticket. This is our annual fund
raiser, with proceeds going towards our capital
expenses. There will be a program in the church at 3:00
focusing on the founder's son, Frank Hubbard and his
family.

Sawmill Day lands on August 19 this year
and we have many displays going on throughout the
grounds. We have a saw and shingle mill set up and
running, music, food, spinners, old phonographs,
woodworkers, and pony rides.

The last event of
the season is our Poetry Reading on September 24 at 3:00
in the church. The local poetry group comes to read
their works and anyone is invited to get up and read
their own creations. Last year we have 30 people attend
and 12 read at least one poem. We also have a local
harpist to entertain our guests.

Our Workshop

the season. They run from 10:00 until 2:00 pm and cost
