The Mason County Sports Hall of Fame Museum is located at Historic White Pine Village in Ludington, MI.

Mission Statement
The Mason County Sports Hall of Fame and Museum is a not-for-profit educational institution dedicated to honoring those who have made outstanding contributions to sports.
Its purpose is to:
1. Honor, by enshrinement, those individuals who had exceptional careers whether as an athlete, a coach, or a team.
2. Recognize others for their significant achievements whether as a sponsor, booster or supportive organization.
3. Foster an appreciation of the historical contributions of these individuals and their impact on our area by collecting through donation, and exhibiting for a general audience, information, memorabilia, artifacts, literature, photographs and related materials which focus on area athletes elected to the Hall of Fame, in particular, and sports in general and by preserving these collections for future posterity.
4. Inspire, educate and enhance awareness, through these exhibitions and collected materials, and create for a diverse audience an understanding and appreciation of our county's Sports Hall of Famers and their heritage.

Vision Statement
By 2015 the Mason County Sports Hall of Fame Museum will occupy a facility exclusively devoted to its purpose and has attained the on-going financial resources needed to sustain its high quality exhibits and program. The museum’s collection of photographs, oral histories, documents and artifacts has continued to grow and a significant portion of the county’s sports history has been written. The Board of Directors has made the celebration of state champions a priority and their recognition is reflected in new exhibits. Visitors to the museum learn about the history and value of athletics and enjoy an engaging and memorable experience.
