Discover Winter Fun in Door County!
This Thanksgiving, we invite you to come together with family, friends, and neighbors to celebrate and support a great cause in Jacksonport, Wisconsin. The 28th Annual Jacksonport Thanksgiving Parade & Benefit will continue its mission of neighbors helping neighbors through support for a local community member in their time of need. The parade starts off at 10:30 AM and if you watch closely, you can view the parade up to four times on its three block journey through "downtown" Jacksonport.
The parade and benefit will support local businessman Kirk Volkmann, who was recently diagnosed with stage four kidney cancer. The event is organized by Bank of Luxemburg and The Thirsty Cow Taphouse, with support from other bars and sponsors.
If you are unable to attend on Thanksgiving Day, you can still help the cause by sending a check made payable to Kirk Volkmann. Mail it to:
Parade Coordinator Paul Kordon
PO Box 514
Baileys Harbor, WI 54202
