Logger Housing at Hume Lake
Some of those original little cabins were later relocated and reused at Hume Lake Christian Camps, where they were rechristened the “Flower Cabins.” Even the old boat house began as one of these cabins. Several still stand on the grounds today.

The Hume Country Fair was a huge success! For those unable to make it here is a look at our history booth just prior to the opening. Much thanks to those who donated the awesome historical items! As well as the amazing Hume Development staff that made it all possible!
