There is always something going on no matter what the season is, be it a music concert, theater production, festival, parade, fair, art and craft show, or sports event. You will also enjoy the natural features of our area such as flowing rivers, lakes, maple and oak trees, Rib Mountain, and the many city parks that provide beauty and recreation throughout the four seasons.
