Today we celebrated Michigan’s Birthday 🎉💙
Michigan officially became a state on January 26, 1837, becoming the 26th state and we honored it by celebrating everything that makes our state so incredible.
From Coney Island chili dogs 🌭 to Traverse City cherry ice cream 🍒🍦, residents enjoyed some true Michigan classics. We also sampled favorites like Faygo pop, Better Made chips, and locally made popcorn all proudly made right here in Michigan.
Michigan truly put the world on wheels 🚗 and continues to be a state of creation, innovation, and grit. We are so blessed to call the Great Lakes State home and to celebrate its rich history, culture, and impact on the world.
Happy Birthday, Michigan 💙🌊🎉
