Midsummer Festival (Juhannus) on June 22 & 23 Join us in commemorating our park's 95th anniversary and the 100th anniversary of the Minnesota Farmer Labor Party. From film screenings to music performances and lively discussions, it promises to be a weekend filled with camaraderie and celebration.
Saturday at 1 PM, immerse yourself in history with a showing of the 1977 film about John T Bernard, "A Common Man's Courage," followed by a captivating introduction by director John de Graff. Later, revel in the joyous atmosphere with a maypole dance led by Terrence Smith, a performance by musician Emmett Doyle, and the soulful melodies of the Lindula Brothers. Music will be followed by a bonfire in a setting of pristine natural beauty on North Star Lake.
