"Each year is different. The ride through, enchanting. 89.1 on your radio, keeps the mood on high, as you slowly ride through with your headlights off.
The children will not only love the displays, but just the lights alone, will delight them! Bring some hot chocolate in safe, drinking cups, and it is sure to feel like a, Winter Wonderland Story."

"Evergreen Park is the best place to walk around in all of Sheboygan. I love following the river. The only negative is that it stays wet for a long time after the rain and there are giant puddles."
Shad Muss
"Beautiful trails through the park! Only walked about 3/4 of Mike and there were many left yet but my kids were too excited to go to the splash pad they got sick of walking faster than normal. I especially loved the little waterfalls and views. Good place to take the family for a picnic or a walk. Bugs weren't even bad. We will come back to finish the trails"
