The time capsule is buried near the entrance of Stafford County Park at 4451 W Huron St, Port Hope, MI 48468. Before reaching the marina is a display on the right with this time capsule and salvaged anchor from the E Cook. The capsule was buried in 1987 and is scheduled to be open on the 200th anniversary in 2087.

Text from the plaque:
Port Hope became Incorporated as a Village in 1887. During the centennial celebration in 1987, it was decided to create a time capsule to preserve memorabilia. On July 2, 1989 a container filled with a variety of items was buried at this location. The desire of those then present was to have the capsule opened during the 200 year anniversary celebration, in 2087.
