A Pioneer Association was formed in 1915 at Round Lake, also known as Lark's Lake; to preserve the natural beauty of these grounds for posterity and as a memorial to the settlers of northern Emmet County. Annual picnics honoring the pioneers were held until 1932, with programs that featured singing, recollections of early days, speeches, and contests. The association deeded the park to Emmet County in 1950.

NEW: Instructions for logging Missing Marker Visits.
If the Marker is missing, but still listed here, you must provide a photo of you at the actual item historically honored. (This should be the waymark's "default" image). Indicate in your log that you took your photo at the Historical Location instead of the marker, because the marker was missing. Please also still include a bit about your visit to the site.
