Norton's October Fest This Weekend

For you who had a good time at Harvest Fest, which is my favorite festival in Green Lake there will be one more chance this weekend at Norton's. Harvest Fest ends the summer and starting at 4:00 on Saturday afternoon Norton's will be having October Fest to kick off the fall. Tuba Dan will be there and great food. I think they will even let you wear tie-die shirts if your in the mood. Mike and Jill throw a great party.

The cost is $29.00 and requires reservations. Give Norton's a call @ 920-294-6577.

Am I The Only One Who Thinks This?

I read on the front page of the Green Lake Reporter this week about the restriction of dogs and skateboards in the downtown area during the Harvest Fest Weekend. Dogs are not allowed in any of the parks at any time. This doesn't create a Festival friendly atmosphere. This is the only town I know of where this happens. Why can I go to Door County and see dogs and kids on their skate boards all the time, festival or not? How can a city like Chicago or Los Angeles or New York be OK with dogs but Green Lake seems to have a problem with this? It is absurd. Green Lake is not people friendly which may also be extended to the way businesses get treated which is why people don't want to open a business here. (Look at the silly sign ordinance here) This dog/skateboard ordinance is foolish and detrimental to a tourist atmosphere. It is just one more way Green Lake tells tourists we want your money but we really don't want you to feel too welcome.

Harvest Fest Weekend

Green Lake Harvest Festival Weekend is this coming weekend. I think it is the best festival of the summer. Hope to see you there!

They are still in need of volunteers to staff the Chamber Booth.

VOLUNTEERS STILL NEEDED. All you people who have an opinion to give on this blog should now give some time! Call the chamber. Many hands make light work.

Thanks for the support!
