Community Celebrations
A 4-day celebration is hosted by community organizations over Labor Day weekend. Truck, tractor, horse and ATV pulls take place throughout the weekend along with a local talent show, youth baseball tournament, dance and carnival. The Labor Day Parade, sponsored by the Lions Club, is the highlight of the weekend.
Oconto River
The Oconto River runs through the village where Riverside Memorial Park is situated on its banks. The park offers a rest area, picnic facilities, playground, community garden, boat landing for access to a fishing excursion or a leisurely canoe trip. The former highway iron bridge has been retained and enhances the park, providing access to the newly constructed boardwalk with interpretive signage through the wetlands along the Oconto River. The iron bridge will be home to an art museum that will display paintings and sculptures depicting the history of the community and of transportation. In December, a beautiful holiday lighting display adorns the park. The park is open year round with certain features having limited accessibility.
Recreation Trail
A year-round recreation trail passes through the center of the village. This trail offers access to the Oconto County and State trail systems. The scenic trail provides a route for hikers and bicyclists in all four seasons. ATV riders can start on the north side of Highway 32. Snowmobile enthusiasts love this well-groomed trail. Trail access, with ample parking and unloading area, is available adjacent to the Village Hall just off Highway 32.
