The inaugural boat parade at the Community Night Out had a touch of magic in it. Kayaker Travis Peterson won the grand prize for his entry shaped like a dragon. Peterson’s vessel wasn’t the biggest, but the homemade design left a fantastic impression. A video put together by the Keweenaw Convention and Visitors Bureau shows several amazing boats done up to the theme, “Light up the Canal.”
The parade snaked west along the water from the Super Eight dock under the bridge, and over towards where the fireworks were lit off at approximately 9:17 near Hancock beach.
A concert at Porvoo Park brought out over 200 people. Houghton held Art on the Town in its Municipal Parking Deck from 4:00-7:00. Some photos of that scene can be viewed below.
