One Northern Michigan town is celebrating its rich culture this week during their "Heritage Week" celebration.

St. Ignace was a crucial location during the fur trades and early days of our country.

This week visitors and residents celebrate that heritage with events lasting until Sunday evening.

Events include a War of 1812 presentation, genecology seminars and a native American parade.

The highlight of week is the traditional straits pow wow which happens on Sunday at noon at Father Marquette Park.
