Summer Is Not Over Yet
Summer festivals are going on all over the state
Labor Day is fast approaching and this last summer holiday usually signals the end of summer and the beginning of the fall season. But you can still eek some summer traditions by attending one of the many summer festivals on around the state.
Travel writer Gary Knowles is the Upper Great lakes columnist to Journal & Topics Newspapers, based in DesPlaines, Illinois, and a Contributing Travel Editor for the online publication, American BoomeR, says the Potato Festival in Rhinelander is worth visiting because “they grow incredible potato’s up there” but there is one festival that Knowles is particularly pleased is finally happening on September 8 in River Falls and that is Bacon Fest. “They’re going to have everything bacon there, bacon eating, bacon market, they’re even going to have bacon ice cream. We have all these festivals, how could we have missed bacon?”
