Fowlerville Some of us remember the days when we could visit a small town and find one-of-a-kind shops like a homemade candy store or an old-fashioned dime-store with wooden floors. Fowlerville is just that kind of community. Merchants in the downtown area still offer friendly service and are happy to see visitors in the area. When planning your visit you may want to arrive during the Fowlerville Family Fair where each July, visitors can experience what it was like to be raised where farming & 4-H is king. Originally an agricultural community, Fowlerville still celebrates the farming traditions of a by-gone era. While at the fair, you can expect to find a demolition derby, tractor pull or live stock auction and you will want to save room for an elephant ear and corn dog. During the fair, visit the Livingston Centre Historical Village. This is Fowlerville’s turn-ofthe-century historic collection of buildings, including a one-room schoolhouse, barbershop, and cobblers shop to name a few, all open for public tours during the fair.
