Mecosta Michigan

Mecosta Michigan About Mecosta Mecosta County is a county in the U.S. state of Michigan.

The county is named after Chief Mecosta, the leader of the Potawatomi Native American tribe that once traveled the local waterways in search of fish and game.[1] Chief Mecosta was one of the signers the Treaty of Washington in 1836.[2] The easily navigated waterways soon led to a boom in lumber industry growth. Workers settled the area in 1851, the county was officially settled and the government

officially organized in 1859. Mecosta County is home to over 100 lakes, rivers, and streams with the Muskegon River winding its way through the county seat and largest city Big Rapids (originally named Leonard).[1]

To all FB friends – remember the days when everyone in town, everyone who used to be from here, and many other visitors came to Remus for Heritage Days?? As the name implies everyone wanted to hang on to our heritage by supporting the annual event – which is why I got involved around ten years ago. Remember how old folks and families came down to talk with each other, listen to music playing in the pavilion (and sometimes dance), enjoy good food, softball games, watch a parade and the kids having fun, on and on. Well, we may not still have all the on and on (just check out the Centennial book available for sale again at the museum), but we still have a great group trying for R E M U S. So, please join or attend RHD meetings (come on scouts, veterans, school groups, nonprofits, churches, show us your stuff, but most of all come one, come all….
In addition to tractor and now truck show, kids’ games, parade, music at night, crafts, food wagons, cold beer, we have expanded to downtown so now, for my personal invite: please COME to the REMUS RUMBLE car and bike show FRIDAY night on Main Street. Great cars/bikes, people we grew up with, great sponsors, the Remus Tavern, Wheatland Grill, and this year a very special hot dog stand sponsored by Mecosta-Remus alumni
