MARQUETTE — From 6:30-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 27, join historian and author Jim Paquette on a visit to the camp sites of Negaunee’s very first miners, the ancient people who once quarried the local Ajibik quartzite deposits on the northeast end of the lake thousands of years ago. We will follow the timeworn footpath along the north lakeshore. It will be approximately a two-mile hike on uneven terrain and hills and is considered a moderate to difficult hike.

Pre-registration is required. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at www.marquettehistory.org for $15 per person. Only 40 tickets are available for this event. Participants will meet at the Negaunee Lakeview School.
