Shell Lake's Annual Events and Festivals

 

 

Town & Country Days   Click Here for more information!

This is the big one for Shell Lake.  Held over Labor Day Weekend, this festival is when the City folks invite the Country folks into town for fun and games. 

Town & Country Days features several events and fun activities for the whole family. There are horse, mini rod and tractor pulls, a bike / run / canoe triathlon, spelling bee, kids games, volleyball tournament, sailboat regatta, arts and crafts fair, nightly live music with dancing, food booths, a fly-in/drive-in pancake breakfast, parade and much more.

 

 

 

•Independence Day Dance and Fireworks

Every July 3rd, the City of Shell Lake comes out to celebrate Independence Day in style.  There is live music and a dance.  At dusk, approximately 9:45 p.m., Shell Lake puts on an impressive fireworks display near Memorial Park over the lake - watch it from the large grassy area (see picture) near the Shell Lake Pavilion, or from your boat!  After the fireworks are over, the music and dancing continue.

 
•Sailboat Regattas

Several Sailboat Regattas are held on Shell Lake each summer.  For more information on these events, please visit the Shell Lake Sailing Club's web site at www.shelllakesailingclub.org  .

 
•Concerts

Having the Shell Lake Arts Center in town has it's advantages - there are musical concerts of one kind or another almost every week!  The Center specializes in music education, and nearly every week, the Center puts on a concert with little or no admission fee to the public.  Some of the concerts are held at the Center, while others are held in the Performing Arts Pavilion on the lakefront.  For more information on these concerts, and the educational opportunities at the Shell Lake Arts Center, please see www.shelllakeartscenter.org .

•Monarch Butterfly Habitat

     Shell Lake is home to the Happy Tonics Monarch Butterfly Habitat, located along Hwy 63 just north of the public beach / Main Street.  There are several annual events planned at the Habitat.  For a list of these events, and more information on the Habitat, please visit their web site, http://happytonics.wordpress.com .
