Another fun event is coming back to the Twin Ports this month.

The Lake Superior Dragon Boat Festival, slated for August 21-22, 2020 has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

A travelling Vietnam Veterans Memorial replica and mobile education center arrives in Superior on July 20, and it will remain open to the public for several days.

After the disappointing first two years of 'Iceman' Roger Hanson's ice project as part of the Superior Ice Festival, the future of his planned third year in 2017 came into question during the Superior City Council's May meetings.

Last year we followed the Ice Project from ground up, back to ground again, back up, and finally back to ground again.  It's a soap opera of the elements of Lake Superior and the unpredictable weather we experience here in the Twin Ports.  So this year, let's follow it again.

It is a 14 year tradition that has been anticipated by many all summer.  The Lake Superior Dragon Boat Festival. It is coming up this weekend, August 21 and 22 at Barker's Island in Superior and involves several people from spectators to teams to volunteers.  With this blog you can be informed on where to park, what roads will be busiest and where you can grab a shuttle to the FREE event.

This last weekend was a Valentines Day Festival at the Ice Project at Barkers Island Festival Park.  If you missed that show (complete with fireworks), there is another two events scheduled!

After the highly publicized collapse of the first structure, Roger Hanson has been back at it trying to salvage something out of the project for the events surrounding it at Barkers Island.  Here's where it is now.
