Lake of the Woods
July 2010 Monthly Newsletter
Welcome to another edition of the Wigwam Monthly Newsletter. We want to start this newsletter off by stating the Walleye fishing on Lake of the Woods has never been better than it is right now, and we do not see any end to the trend in the near future. So, if you’re on the fence about visiting Lake of the Woods, jump off and get your butts over here as soon as possible, you won’t regret your decision to visit.
June provided us some of the best Walleye fishing we have ever experienced on a day in and day out basis on fabulous Lake of the Woods. Not only were there great quantities of Walleyes caught, but most of the Walleyes were big. Many of the big Walleyes were released to give us all a chance of catching them again in the future. Our Walleye fishing truly exemplifies the title given to Lake of the Woods as the “Walleye Capitol of the World.”
19th Annual Beach Bash July 24, 2010
Now that July is upon us, the Wigwam Resort looks to prepare for its 19th Annual Beach Bash (July 24th), which is a yearly cornerstone in the community. This year we will have many new attractions during Beach Bach including a Pig Roast, Clothing Sales, LOW Drifters 50/50 Raffle, and Music by the Waynn Renn Band. We will still have all the usual attractions that people have become accustom too throughout the years, which will consist of the usual Miss Wigwam Contest, Wet T-Shirt Contest, and many more fun filled events. Our cabins are already sold out, but we do have a few lodge rooms available and many camping and RV sights are also still available, so there’s no one that has to leave the fun. The party will start at 3 pm and end at 1 am when the band plays its final song. Last year we recorded over 600 people in attendance and we anticipate topping those numbers this year. If you are interested in attending, please give us a call and make your arrangements today! We look forward to see you all on July 24th at the Wigwam Resort!
I said this in the last newsletter, but now that summer is upon us it must be said again, so here we go; I want to remind everyone that we do have a Campground and an RV Park. Both our Campground and RV Park have access to a free dock slip and a restroom/shower facility. I remember when I was kid; my Mom and Dad always took our family to Red Gut Bay on Rainy Lake every summer to stay in our family’s pop-up camper. I remember it as vividly today, as if it were yesterday, and it was awesome. It gave my family an excellent opportunity to bond, communicate, grow and share together. Many families just don’t have the opportunity to sit down and have the discussions families once did. Hopefully, thinking about this may fill your minds with great memories from your childhood, and now might be your chance to do this with your own family. We would love to help you make this a fantastic experience that you and your family will remember for a lifetime. We are also giving Kid Discounts this summer to help Moms and Dads make this a reality…hope to see you all here!
