ROCKLAND -- The Old Victoria Historical Site will have its 43rd-annual Craft Fair from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern time Sunday on the grounds of the historic copper mining village just outside of Rockland in Ontonagon County.
Three of the four restored cabins and the sauna will be open for self-guided tours free of charge.
The hand-hewn log cabins show how the miners and their families lived. Tour guides will be available to share the history of the Victoria Copper Mine and the people who braved the wilderness to live and work there.
Visitors can browse a variety of arts, crafts and food products from talented local artisans on the lawn of the heritage site.
At 1:30 p.m. Eastern time, old-fashioned kids games will take place on the upper lawn, including sack races, water relays and more. Children who participate always have loads of fun earning small treats in the friendly competitions and the games are a blast for adults to watch as well.
Visitors can try Old Victoria's famous cinnamon rolls. Volunteers make and bake the rolls from scratch on site in the old-fashioned woodstove. Dripping with homemade icing, these are a treat that bring people from hours away year after year to enjoy.
Old Victoria is on Victoria Dam Road 4 miles outside of Rockland.
