Chamber prepares to host city-wide celebration


Editor
The month of May is part of what people in the tourism industry call the “shoulder” season. Snowmobile and ski season is over and summer has yet to begin. To add a little flair to this shoulder month, staff at the Rhinelander Area Chamber of Commerce is introducing Hodag Heritage Days, May 17-21. The week will feature Hodag-themed art contests, scavenger hunts, decoration contests, Hodag food and beverages, culminating with a designation ceremony and a “parked parade.”
Pioneer Park Historical Complex and the Hodag Store are partnering with the chamber on this first-of-its-kind event.
“We really want to give people a reason to celebrate, to appreciate each other and our heritage,” said chamber events and program coordinator Rachel Boehlen. “We are providing a mix of in-person activities and virtual activities along with focusing on our local business partners. We encourage everyone to join in; this event is for you!”

Rhinelander to Celebrate Hodag, History, and Community with Hodag Heritage Days


Boehlen says the idea for the event has been in the works for years.
The Chamber wanted to hold it last year, but like most things, it got pushed back because of the pandemic.
Now, the Hodag Heritage Days will be a celebration of the city’s history and its people.
“We are so proud of how our community has responded to everything going on in the last year, year and a half,” she said.
The Chamber along with Pioneer Park Historical Complex and the Hodag Store are hosting a series of events the week of May 17th.
There will be scavenger hunts, art contests, bike rides, a parked parade, and a Hodag Day Designation Ceremony.
