Like most towns, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin has an annual summer festivity; Lake Days. However, unlike other towns that go out of their way to top the previous year, Beaver Dam’s Lake Days are going down hill.
My wife and I made it a point to take our daughter up their this morning, well, actually, a little after noon.
In the past, there were some booths up there and plenty of options
for food but this year it was just sad. Even though it was afternoon, hardly anything was open.
There was a band playing in the beer tent (some place you don’t want to take a 3-year-old child) and none of the carnival rides were even going yet.
The only thing there for kids were a couple of McDonald’s characters running around and, of course, my daughter is still scared of them.
