Apples, sweet corn, ice cream, candy, nuts, flowers,
fruits, spices, bison meat, sausage, cheese, and too
many more to mention - is exactly what you'll find at
the Harvest Fest Farmer's Market. Area vendors
offer a tempting array of homemade pies, desserts
and jams along with homegrown fruits, vegetables
and plants.
The farmer's market is just one of the many reasons you will enjoy Green Lake's annual Harvest Festival. With a full weekend of events on September 24 and 25, it is the perfect addition to your vacation. Some of the highlights on Saturday include Green Lake's largest parade, scarecrow contest and evening street dance. Sunday's events include a pancake breakfast, Taste-of-the-Town food fair, waiters race, classic/antique car show, and a live auction. Both days will host a craft fair, farmer's market, live musical entertainment, face painting, games, raffles, and much more. If you plan on staying that weekend, you'll want to make your reservation soon. September is always a busy month at our resort and I want to make sure you get in. Just call the reservations department at 800.444.2812. |

I am so excited about our new event this
year: A Christmas Carol performed by Gerlad Charles
Dickens! I know it is early to be thinking
about Christmas, but I wanted you to be the
first to know about this very special event. Tickets
may sell fast, so if you want to see the
show, call now to reserve yours: 800.444.2812.
Gerald Charles Dickens, great-great grandson of Charles Dickens, performs "A Christmas Carol". The English actor uses a variety of voices to portray the 26 different characters that appear in Charles Dickens' beloved 1843 story of Christmas past, present and future. Dressed in a frock coat, cravat and embroidered waistcoat, Gerald Dickens leaps, laughs and sobs as he actively interprets his ancestor's timeless tale. We will host two performances, a tea and a dinner show on December 16, 2005. Full menus are available online. I'll send you a reminder as the date nears. |
