Candle making and ice cream in Dorset

Check out Dorset! Experience making your very own scent curated, hand-poured candle with local artists for background music.

Legends and Logging

So much to do and only one weekend! Which events will you want to choose over this weekend to attend? The weekend kicked off the American Legion hosting with a Benefit Supper for Northwoods Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation with a raffle and silent auction. Saturday starts with a Loggers breakfast fit for any Lumber Jack or Jill Head downtown to check out the Lumberjack show, grab some food and a drink with local performers providing music, and then check out the outdoor recreational area that includes a dunk-tank, hands-on archery experience for the kids by Smokey Hills Outdoor Store, face painting, and a climbing wall. Don’t forget to say hi to the local heroes! End the day hanging out poolside at the Americ-inn. This community event is fun for all ages, as a family, a unique weekend getaway, or a fun date.
