Harbor History Talk - Hotels of Harbor Springs Print
Thursday, August 09 2012, 5:00pm - 7:00pm

The Harbor Springs Area Historical Society invites you to take a walk through the historic hotels of Harbor Springs on Thursday, August 9 beginning at 5:00 pm. Our “concierge” for this Harbor History Talk is Tom Graham, local resident and historian. Tom’s presentation includes great historic images of Harbor Springs, our waterfront and a number of the old hotels.

During his presentation, the audience will look through the lobby of the Ramona Park Inn, learn about the various names of the short-lived Kensington Hotel, and take a peek inside some of the resort hotels that operated into the 1960s. Tom Graham is a wealth of information (and stories) about these grand ghosts of Harbor Springs' resort history.

Tom’s program will begin promptly at 5:30 pm but we invite you to join us at 5:00 pm for a light wine and cheese reception. The talk will take place in the second-floor Anton Library at the Harbor Springs History Museum, 349 E Main Street.

Admission is $5 per person and free to current Historical Society members. The Harbor History Talks are presented ten months out of the year by the Historical Society and are sponsored in part by Graham Real Estate.

For more information, please call the Historical Society at (231) 526-9771.
