River Country Chamber's annual Logging Fest sponsored by Elder's Forest Products began more than 70 years ago and continues to grow each year bringing new faces into the area to help celebrate the logging heritage this small town was founded on. Professional & Amateur LumberJacks & LumberJills provide lots of entertainment as they compete for top place. Shop for unique items with our vendors and grab a tasty treat from one of the food trucks.

FAQ:
Public Parking:
Behind The Stream, behind Heritage Museum to Parsley's, marked spaces along M-37, the school parking lots (take the stairs down), around Brooks Park. Please be patient and use crosswalks. Do not block driveways.
Pets:
Well behaved pets are permitted, but must be leashed and with a human at all times. Must pick up after them and dispose in trash receptacle. Check the Chamber Booth for a water station.
Parent Station:
We've got you covered! We have an enclosed booth for privacy to use as needed. Whether you need to change or feed your child, you're welcome to use. Located next to the Stage.
Security:
We are fortunate to have Newaygo Police Department and Reserve Officers throughout the area. Make sure to stop and say Hello so kiddos can get a badge! A First Aid kit will be at the chamber booth by the stage.
Where can we stay nearby? We have a full list of lodging members here!
