Tucked up in the northeastern area of Minnesota is the ideal place to make your plans for your Minnesota tourism adventure. You can visit the community of Aitkin and see the World Famous Fishhouse Parade. You probably thought that fishhouses would be boring. Not so. These people get the decorating ideas down and enter their fishhouse in the parade to celebrate the coming of winter and the ice fishing season. Join in the fun and see if you can pick out the winner of the best, most bizarre decorated fishhouse that is going down Main Street.

Make your plans to start your Minnesota tourism adventure the day after Thanksgiving. That is when the parade is held to begin the winter season. There is also great food to be tasted, music to be enjoyed and craft booths to see if you can find something special. Take your camera along since no one will believe you when you tell them about the fishhouses you saw. Each one decorated to be better than their neighbors, who is the funniest? Who is the most bizarre? Come and enjoy the fun.

If you have never been ice fishing you may want to give it a try after seeing the fishhouses and all they have to offer. You will be warm as you dig your hole in the ice and drop your line in the water. Want more information? Contact the chamber for more information.
