About the Schoolcraft Village Logo
adapted from the Schoolcraft Historical Society Newsletter Fall 2005

On June 16, 2003, the Schoolcraft Historical Society presented to the Schoolcraft Village Council a proposed design for a new logo for the village. The Village council unanimously adopted the logo as the official logo for the Village of Schoolcraft at that meeting. We are very proud of our members that contributed to the design and offer a thank you to Craig Vestal, another good friend to the Society, who prepared the final artwork.

Historic Schoolcraft - Established 1830

Inside an oval frame the Underground Railway House, an oak tree, a bee skep, a period plow and arrowheads comprise the logo.

  * The Underground Railway House represents an important part of our history.
  * The oak tree represents author James Fenimore Cooper's book about Schoolcraft titled Oak Openings and the community's sense of pride regarding our trees.
  * The bee skep is a symbol of the industrious and busy people of Schoolcraft and is in reference to the Beekeeper in James Fenimore Cooper's Oak Openings patterned after Basil Harrison, our area's first pioneer.
  * The plow reflects the past and present importance of agriculture to our region.
  * Arrowheads on each side pay tribute to the Native Americans who settled in Schoolcraft prior to the arrival of the Europeans.
  * The date 1830 reflects the first settlements by descendants of European immigrants, 36 years prior to the incorporation of the Village as a corporate body.
