Wahbememe Memorial Park (Park is open dawn to dusk) Legend has it, while in Detroit Chief White Pigeon of the Potawatomi tribe learned of an Indian uprising and a threatened attack on the settlement that later became White Pigeon. He ran continuously from Detroit to the settlement to warn his friends of the danger and then died. In 1909, members of the Alba Columba Club, a White Pigeon women's group, raised funds and community support to create this monument to Chief Wahbememe. The Memorial Park also commemorates other local heroes that "gave their last full measure" for this country as well as other local heroes that have served in the military.
