Long Range Plans, Long History Past People in the Blue Water area look forward to several events sponsored by the Museum of Arts and History. Two of these events, the Feast of the Ste. Claire and Pioneer Days, took place last sum- mer. In addition, work was finally begun on the Thom- as Edison Inn. Feast of the Ste. Claire took place May 24th and 25th at Pine Grove Park. It demonstrated how people once lived in St. Clair County when Michigan was first discovered. Pioneer Days was held Au- gust 24th at the museum. This event showed how people lived around the late 1800’s all over the country. Finally, after much de- lay, work was started on the Thomas Edison Inn. This new hotel was the subject of much controver- sy as was the land it was built on. It was built on the former Peerless Property along with a new park and streets. These events showed a long history and long plans all in a short pe- riod of time. • IV .SP I; -x K • «W u I v. . i l ' ' I , fr . - 6
