It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1997[2] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1] HistoryIn about 1906, a group of Detroit-area people of Finnish descent formed the Detroit Finnish Educational Association to preserve and share the traditions of their native land.[2] The Association members participated in communal summer activities, often renting beaches and parks for camping and swimming.[2] In 1925, the Association formed a committee to select a permanent spot for the group's outdoor activities. After some searching, the committee selected the present site, and formed the Detroit Finnish Cooperative Summer Camp Association as a separate organization, open to anyone who was "of Finnish descent, Finnish speaking, of good character and [living] in the Detroit area."[2] In June 1925 the Summer Camp Association purchased this land with the purpose of constructing a permanent summer camp .[3] The first sauna was constructed in 1926, and the dance hall in 1927. DescriptionThe Detroit Finnish Cooperative Summer Camp Association, fondly known as “Finn Camp”, is set on a wooded property along Loon Lake, and entirely surrounds the smaller Sun Lake.[3] The property is bounded by Loon Lake, the Hickory Hill Golf and Country Club, the Detroit Finnish Cooperative Summer Camp Association subdivision, and the Loon Lake Estates subdivision.
