A group enjoying a scenic trip up the Cass
River. Water shows and skiing are also held
here during the Bavarian Festival - the second
full week in June each year. The river was
named after Lewis Cass, appointed military and
civil Governor of the Michigan Territory in 1831.
He also made the famous Cass Treaty with the
Chippewa Indians, which predominated the area
at that time.
