In 2004 the Montague Police Department constructed a new and improved "Santa House." The old house, over forty years old, was maintained and repaired for many years by retired police officer Bob Kowalski. The "Santa House," a Montague Police tradition, has been an annual attraction to White Lake area children ever since the 1960s.
