The history of Muskegon is a storied one. From the fur trading days to the logging years....then on to industrial and now Muskegon is poised for the next great era! Big things are coming and growth feels like it's going to be rapid!
It's important though that we take a good look from time to time at how we got here and who the people were that helped get us here! Thing is....some of them are dead. It's the one thing no one can avoid....so.....

This is an adventure for sure, but it's done in a very respectful way and people who've gone on this tour in the past have walked away a little smarter and a whole lot more entertained.
Jackie Engel invited me out way back on Labor Day weekend to get the scoop from some of the stars of the show...as well as the people who are playing the stars in the Evergreen Cemetery. Take a listen to our chat below!
It's a fun way to learn more about your town! We simply can't forget the things that have built Muskegon up and as we look forward to the next phase. It's common people who've built...grown and prospered. They gave this community the backbone and pride we still carry, and very unapologetic-ally! It's a tour that should be taken by young and old and the stories you hear...share them with pride for it's you that make Muskegon what it is! Be proud! Click on the photo below for tickets!
