Tallulah (also spelled Talula) is a swan statue about 15 feet tall beside the Elk Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce on US-31. Local Rotary Club members built her in 1966 as a parade float to carry Miss Elk Rapids; she was moved to her present spot in the early 1970s and is maintained by Elk Rapids High School shop students.
