For Families:
Eagle River Bear Paw Festival This is an all weekend event and a lot of fun for kids and adults. The parking used to be a huge issue but now they have a free shuttle service on Saturday and this on Friday. ALSO FOR ADULTS: On Sunday there is this, if you need flowers still for your house/yard. This is the MOST inexpensive way to do it. I highly suggest coming early for this event as the really fantastic hanging baskets go quickly.
