Land of Hiawatha extends hospitality to Michigan press
The 1930 Michigan Press Association summer outing gathered at Blaney Park in Schoolcraft County in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Attendees enjoyed golf, bridge, and scenic tours, while Blaney Park underwent rapid development turning a former lumber town into a year round resort with a hotel, golf course, airport, and Paul Bunyan camp. The project also includes reforestation efforts with University of Michigan and Michigan State College involvement as forests grow.
