The Historical Sign reads:
BEARINGER UNION SCHOOL
A forest fire destroyed Bearinger's log schoolhose, known as Grace School, in 1919. The following year this structure was built of locally gathered fieldstone's -- no doubt chosen as a material resistant to fire. This building served Bearinger Township students until 1937 when the North Allis and Bearinger districts began transporting students to Onaway. in 1957 the township purchased the school and converted it to a township hall.
It is also home to the famous Dancing Hippopotamus arts and crafts festival (42nd year).
