Lumberjack Show and Interactive Camp
World Champion Lumberjacks and Lumberjills demonstrate wood chopping, sawing, ax throwing and more, reminiscent of the days when pioneers came to the north woods to make a living and stayed to build our towns.
A wristband gets you into the action and events both Friday and Saturday at the Tractor Grounds (kids under 12 admitted free) for family activities including a historical homestead, logging demonstrations, a pre-1840 Rendezvous encampment, archery/tomahawk competition, interactive camps and more.
Master Chainsaw Artists
Sculptors being their masterpieces early Friday morning. Right before your eyes the sawdust flies and huge logs begin too shape into beautiful pieces of art. Final touches are put on Saturday morning before they're put up for auction to the highest bidders in the afternoon.
Loon calling and more...
Visitors are invited to enjoy loon calling contests, a Saturday morning Loggers Breakfast and food on site both days.
