Dear :
Looking outside today, you might find it hard to imagine that these long, laid-back (and hot!) summer days will soon be giving way to the brilliant colors and cool breezes of autumn. Those wondrous Wisconsin fall days aren't far off, but there's still some great summer fun yet to be had in our inviting Harbor Towns this month!
Each of our Lake Michigan and Lake Superior communities offers its own special dose of amazing scenery, one-of-a-kind events, and memorable recreational opportunities. But the one thing you'll find in common among them all is their warm, welcoming hospitality. So don't wait... get out and relish these remaining days of summer and start planning a great fall getaway as well! We're highlighting a handful of our Harbor Town communities this month, all of which are ready and waiting to welcome you to a great Wisconsin getaway any time of the year!
Sincerely,
Wisconsin Harbor Towns Association

MANITOWOC |
 Out of this World Funky Fun!Coast for a while in Manitowoc for one of a kind entertainment. Manitowoc Farmers Market is one of the fastest growing markets in Wisconsin. It's held Tuesdays and Saturdays through October on the riverfront, and offers the freshest produce, flowers, craft vendors, and more. The Rahr-West Art Museum celebrates Sputnikfest on September 8th to commemorate the chunk of Sputnik IV that fell from the sky 50 years ago in 1962. Build a robot; compete in the aluminum foil costume contest or watch Miss Space Debris hand over her crown. Then groove with David Cassidy at the Capitol Civic Centre on September 29th and rekindle teenage memories.

 There's No Shortage of Fun in Superior!
The days may be getting shorter, however Superior won't come up short on fun. Labor Day weekend take flight on the EAA's 1929 Ford Tri Motor airliner, or take part in events with the Great Northern Classic Rodeo and Duluth~Superior Pride. Don't miss East End Family Fun Day and Community-wide Rummage Sales. Fall with Superior Public Museums is tour-ific, snatch up the last tours of the season of the Meteor and Old Firehouse & Police Museum (open through mid-October) or try a flashlight tour of Fairlawn.
