Located centrally on the west side of Michigan lies Big Rapids, named for one of the biggest rapids on the Muskegon River.
The river was used as a transportation aretery moving logs downstream to the mills located in Muskegon during the region's 1850's timber boom.
Today, Big Rapids has grown to a population of approximately 10,800 and is the home of Ferris State University, a college of over 13,000 students.
