Recreation:

Edge of the Wilderness Scenic Byway

The Byway meanders 47 miles north from Grand Rapids to Effie, Minnesota. You are invited to come and celebrate our northern hospitality, hometown pride and the treasures of our natural heritage. Minnesota, midway between America's east and west coasts, is home to 12,000 lakes. It is filled with beautiful country and all the treasures of the four seasons. The Edge of the Wilderness is the rustic slice of this great state, with more than 1,000 lakes and one mighty river nearby, all in a landscape of remarkable natural beauty. It offers some of Minnesota's most popular fishing, hunting, camping, trail, winter sports and resort opportunities. For more information on what to see and do within the Edge of the Wilderness communities, call or visit the U.S. Forest Service District Office in Marcell, or contact your local Office of Tourism.

Events:

North Star Rodeo

The Rodeo just outside of Effie is a full-featured one. Everything you will find in rodeos across the West is on display here. The contestants are mostly home grown, but some veteran cowboys from all parts of the U.S. and Canada come to do their thing at the Minnesota's North Star Rodeo.
It's a ceremonial re-creation of how it was done during pioneer times conducted safely under the rules of the Minnesota Rodeo Association. The events mentioned above are all contested each day of the three day rodeo.

Come on up and join us for our rodeo, the North Star Stampede. It's the longest-running open rodeo in the country, brought to you by Minnesota's oldest rodeo company. You may not have heard of it, but there is a full-featured rodeo in Minnesota just an easy 220-mile drive from the Twin Cities. The North Star Stampede Rodeo is located just outside the small town of Effie in the northwestern part of our state. Each year the rodeo runs during the last weekend of July. That would be Friday, Saturday, Sunday: July 26, 27, and 28, 2002.
