We recently asked people on our Facebook page for their ideas about hidden gems in Michigan.
 
One of the answers was the Cascade Falls in Jackson. The landmark was created in the 1930s by a local businessman. But these days the Cascades need some help.
 
The county parks department is trying to raise almost $10 million for renovations to the mechanical, plumbing, and electrical parts of the falls. 
 
Michigan Radio’s Kyle Norris and Lucy Perkins decided to visit the Cascades and describe what happens at this manmade attraction.
