The Republic Area Historical Society is a non-profit organization founded in 1989, located in Republic, Michigan. The society's mission is to preserve, promote and share the history and culture of the Republic area.

The society's headquarters is the Historic Republic Depot, which was built in 1903 and served as a depot for the Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway for over 70 years. The depot was restored and renovated by the society in the 1990s and now serves as a museum and community center.

The society hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including an annual Depot Days celebration, which features live music, food, and historical exhibits. The society also sponsors educational programs and lectures, and works with local schools to provide educational opportunities for students.

Overall, the Republic Area Historical Society is a vital organization that plays an important role in preserving and promoting the rich history and culture of the Republic area.

Campsite 68 Our campsite at Michigan's Van Riper State Park, which is near Marquette and (much) nearer Champion. Do notice Joan at work in the canopy.

Excellent Light at Van Riper State Park The campground has a park-like opening, which leads to the beach on Lake Michigamme.

If you want nutrition, eat carrots -- Explored The Old Ish Creamery in Ishpeming. I think they must have designed the building to match their supplier.
