I think we can officially say we are in summer mode here in Wisconsin! The temperature has surpassed the forties, the sun is shining and there have only been a few rainy days (knock on wood). 

 

From Bayfield to Kenosha, we are pulling out our paddle boards, pumping up our bike tires, dusting off the kayaks, and rolling out the beach towels... or at least the picnic blankets. June is full of festivals and events all along the shoreline, sure to provide fun for the whole family and people of all interests. 

 

For budgets of all shapes and sizes, whether you are vacationing with a family or on your own, spending a few hours with us or a few days, there is something for everyone at each one of our Harbor Towns!

 

Sincerely,
Wisconsin Harbor Towns Association  
GREEN BAY
Go for a wild ride!

Get ready for a wild voyage aboard the Sea Dragon in Green Bay!  This swinging, gondola ride is the newest addition to Bay Beach Amusement Park, Green Bay's treasured waterfront theme park.  With tickets for the ride priced at just 75 cents, you'll definitely want to climb aboard more than once!

 

Make sure you enjoy some of Bay Beach's 18 other rides during your visit.  Go for a spin on the Tilt-a-Whirl or admire the views from the Ferris Wheel.  You won't want to miss a ride down the Zippin Pippin, the park's wooden roller coaster!  Don't forget to stop and refuel with some cotton candy, nachos or a sno-cone at the parks concession stand.

KEWAUNEE

Spirit of the Lakeshore

The Spirit of the Lakeshore lives in Kewaunee. With an inviting deep water harbor on Lake Michigan, a river home for spawning salmon and trout, and true old fashioned charm, Kewaunee is a perfect destination for dining and nightlife, fishing (or romantic) getaways, perfect walks along the beach, biking/hiking the Ahnapee Trail, ATV trails, winter sports, and especially friendly people. Stop at the Chamber Welcome Center for a helpful smile and visitor ideas, delve into the past at the downtown historical center, or take a stroll down the pier to lighthouse. Kewaunee's lakeshore lifestyle will win you over.

MARINETTE

Expanding Horizons

Marinette's attractive  "business-first" philosophy is making the difference for a growing number of businesses and industries who have decided to locate here. We work hard to clear away roadblocks and create a dynamic environment where businesses can grow and thrive.
 

Marinette is the proud home of Marinette Marine Corporation, manufacturer of the Freedom-Class Littoral Combat Ship (LCS), as well as such international industries as TYCO Fire Suppression, which focuses its Marinette facilities on fire suppression manufacturing, research and development and training. Privately held companies such as Winsert, Waupaca Foundry, Inc. and KS Kolbenschmidt-US, Inc. have grown to become worldwide manufacturers through the combined interest of owners, employees and economic development resources. Large, midsize and small industries have found Marinette to be a cooperative community, offering both Technical College and University level educational opportunities to its workforce.
