Caseville FB During Cheeseburger

Caseville Firefighters Grill For Charity

Each year the Caseville Firefighter put an apron on to grill up some of the finest straight-up cheeseburgers in town. On the first Saturday of Cheeseburger in Caseville festival the firehouse is opened up to the community. The grills are fired up for cheeseburgers. For a mere $5 you can have a 1/4 pound of deliciousness. Sit down and savor it among hundreds of friends and supporters. If the weather holds, which we expect it to, the event will be packed with patrons lined down the block.

Kids get a chance to checkout the big fire trucks and equipment they use when fighting fires.

Firehouse T-shirt sales are usually available at the station during the cookout and across the street from the station. Each sale benefits community programs that the Caseville Firefighters support across the Upper Thumb.

The Railroad at the Bottom of the Bay – Caseville’s first railroad engines were delivered by the ship C.R. Dumford from Cleveland. The track out of Caseville was laid out about a mile before heavy snow stopped the work. Francis Crawford financed the railway project and the rails were shipped in from Cleveland. How they ended up in Saginaw Bay near Oak Point is still a mystery.

2019 Cheeseburger in Caseville – The 21st annual Cheeseburger in Caseville is a chance to experience a bit of Key West and NOLA atmosphere, tropical music and indulge in cheeseburgers. In prior years, officials placed estimates were that over 100,000 people visited the area during its 10-day festival. It’s a family-friendly event during the day but offers a bit of craziness that true Parrot Heads appreciate in the evening hours.
