Stillwater’s Lumberjack Days – this great local Minnesota tradition is BACK! The Locals, a non-profit group from Stillwater MN., have breathed life back into this event for three days of traditional, Minnesota outdoor fun!!
In an article by the Stillwater Current, Brad Glynn said the following, “It’s been our mission from day 1 to return this event to our community festival,” Brad Glynn, a board member of The Locals told the council. “I think over the last two years we’ve really taken some big strides to show that when you give people in the community — who have ownership in this community — the responsibility to throw our own party, we can do it. I think we have the ship pointed in the right direction for the mission of this event. Now that the city has ownership of the name, it makes sense that we return Lumberjack Days to the glory it once was.”
