We will be showing another History Hounds lecture at 3:00 P.M., October 1st at the Bellaire Public Library. This weeks program will be: Summer Capital: Mackinac and the Michigan government.

By the time Michigan’s third Capitol was built in the 1870s, the Mackinac region was already a famous travel destination. In following decades, it also became a political gathering place, forming fascinating links to the state government. Join us to discover the shared heritage of Michigan’s Capitol and "summer capital."

Hope to see you there!
