Come
Friday night for the Possum King and Queen contests
and stay for Saturday's parade and possum auction.
Be sure to try some possum stew, it is surprisingly
good. Share in the laughs when local politicians and
celebrities bid against each other for the rights to
a live possum...really.
Visit the arts and crafts booths while you listen to
local bluegrass, gospel and country bands. In
addition, try a sample of a variety of unique
southern foods. The most popular treat, being, well
you guessed it...Possum Ice Cream!
Round out the
evening by attending the Saturday evening dance held
at the world famous Possum Palace.
While in Wausau, be sure to check out the Possum
Memorial on Main Street when you come visit!
Everyone is invited to attend this fun filled family
event!
