The name "Moonbeam" is attributed to early pioneers who allegedly witnessed flashing lights falling from the sky, which they called "moonbeams". These lights fell down or reflected in a creek that flows west from Strickland to Rémi Lake and was called Moonbeam Creek.
The alien rumors were bolstered when in the 1960s and '70s there was a wave of UFO sightings in the area, coupled with a series of mysterious crop circles. Regardless of the truth, the name stuck, and Moonbeam has fully adopted the alien as its mascot. Nowhere is this better evidenced than at the visitor's center.
