CASSOPOLIS -- The Pioneer Log Cabin Museum along Stone Lake joins more than 80 other Michigan locations to celebrate the 17th annual Log Cabin Day Sunday, June 29.
The cabin will be the site of crafts, fiddlers and refreshments.
Farmers formed a parade down the main street, as they brought in their best logs to the Village of Cassopolis in 1923.
On that May 23 Cass County residents took a turn back in time.
The Pioneer Log Cabin Museum was constructed on the banks of Stone Lake and continues to be a highlight of the village and county.
A map exists which shows where each donated log was put and the name of the family which brought it to town and pitched in to build the cabin.
