Wick-A-Te-Wah (or Wic-a-te-wah) is an unincorporated summer resort area of Onekama Township, Manistee County in the U.S. state of Michigan. It is located on the south shore of Portage Lake at 44.3558°N -86.2239°W, between the Portage Lake Bible Camp Camp Delight on the east and Red Park on the west.
Mr. H. Ward Leonard, a developer from Manistee, developed this area as a summer resort in the early 1900s. In 1917, Leonard issued a brochure describing the property and the availability of lots for sale.
The annual Fourth of July Wick-A-Te-Wah Parade is considered by many to be one of the best Fourth of July parades in Michigan, drawing considerable crowds and extensive neighborhood participation.[1]
