Enjoy a fresh cup of coffee in our new Say Yes to Michigan! stainless steel tumblers

Relive the classic ‘Yes, Michigan!’ tourism campaign from the 1980’s with our 20 oz. stainless steel insulated tumblers.

We take plain stainless steel tumblers and powder coat them in our Southwest Michigan workshop. Once the powder coating is baked on, the tumblers head over to our laser machine to have the slogan and state outline etched onto the tumblers.

If you’re looking for some delicious coffee to brew for your new tumbler, be sure to check out our Michigan Coffee Gift Box featuring Keweenaw Coffee Works coffees.

Say Yes to Michigan Campaign Postcard

Say Yes to Michigan Campaign Postcard, originally uploaded by UpNorth Memories - Don Harrison.

I remember seeing these as bumper stickers back in the 1980s. I believe this particular campaign began in the 1970s. At the same time there were also those bumper stickers with the phrase, "Will the last person in Michigan please turn out the lights."

It wasn't until years later (hey, I was just a kid) that I realized that this wasn't a promotion of Michigan, but a snarky comment about the exodus of Michigan residents due to the poor Michigan economy.

There was also that jingle they played on the radio and on television ads - Yes, Michigan!

It went something like - Yes, Michigan! The feeling's forever.

That's all I can remember. My only hope is that I have now made that song stuck in the head of each and every one of you who reads this post ;).
