A sincere thank you to Kalin Sheick for spending her lunch hour with us during the Chamber-sponsored Lunch and Learn April 20th. Running a successful seasonal business, where most of the year’s revenue is concentrated between Memorial Day and Labor Day, while balancing family responsibilities, is a reality many in the Les Cheneaux Islands know well. Kalin’s willingness to share her time and insight made the session both relevant and valuable.

Each summer, the Les Cheneaux Islands Chamber of Commerce has the privilege of bringing our
community together for an Independence Day celebration that has become a highlight of the season for
residents, families, and visitors alike. It’s a time when traditions come alive, friendships are renewed, and
new memories are made along the waterfront. We’re once again inviting you to be part of what makes
this celebration possible.
Plans are underway for a full slate of Independence Day festivities designed for all ages, including kid’s
games and activities, live entertainment, a poker run by boat, a fishing tournament, and a breathtaking
fireworks show over Cedarville Bay. For a full list of activities, visit www.lescheneaux.net/4th-of-july-2.
These events don’t just happen, they are made possible through the generosity and support of our
community, and we can’t do it without you.

The Les Cheneaux area lies east of the Mackinac Bridge along the northern shore of Lake Huron. Thirty-six islands provide sheltered channels and bays within the Straits of Mackinac – a historic harbor area for boaters and explorers. Whispering forests with trails and pathways offer unparalleled year-round opportunities for vacations, day-trips, reunions and quiet breaks from city life. Cedarville and Hessel, historic Upper Peninsula port towns with marinas and waterfront vistas, have unusual gift and craft-making shops, galleries, an outfitter and guide service, boat building school, and places to eat and kick-back within walking distance from docks.
The name "Les Cheneaux" (pronounced "Lay-Shen-O") is French in origin, and loosely translated to mean "the channels." Our series of 36 islands along 12 miles of Lake Huron shoreline afford many channels throughout the area. The sheltered bays, channels and quiet coves make for ideal sailing and boating as small crafts are protected from the Great Lake's winds

Welcome to classic harbor towns of Cedarville and Hessel Michigan.
