The Inspiration
Where Matching Memories began
As a fourth-generation Tobin — one of the earliest families to settle in Leelanau County — I have countless fond recollections of this special place. Whenever I revisit one of them, it brings an uplifting feeling that's hard to describe. But those moments aren't unique to me.
In many ways, the best parts of our lives are collections of cherished experiences.
That realization inspired the Flagship Edition of Matching Memories® — a card game designed to bring family and friends together while rekindling the moments, places, and stories that make Leelanau County unforgettable.
