Each year on the third Sunday in July, communities around the Big Lake celebrate Lake Superior Day. There are activities around the lake to celebrate, but how did it all begin? WTIP’s Rhonda Silence finds out more in this feature, the latest in the Lake Superior Project series.
 
Here in Grand Marais, Lake Superior Day is being celebrated at Voyageur Brewing Company from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 16.
 
The Cook County Aquatic Invasive Species Department will have outreach displays and Lake Superior facts. There will be actual-size freshwater silicone fish for printmaking, minnow races, motorized boat races and a rusty crayfish boil.
