HOUGHTON LAKE – The 50th Annual Historical Village Days was held Aug. 13 and 14 at the Historical Village in Prudenville. The festival celebrates the unique history of the Houghton Lake area and represents village live in the mid to late 1800s.
Its 15 buildings were open to visitors, with interpreters in historic costume on hand to answer questions. Also featured were demonstrations of “old time” crafts such as hand quilting and candle making. The Cook Shack was open serving pancake breakfast as well as hotdogs and brats lunch.
