Superior

Barker's Island Festival Pavilion
The Barker's Island Pavilion was built in 2005 along the shores of Lake Superior.  The pavilion came as a kit and RJS was the contractor; the cost was estimated to be $150,000.  It was funded by the City of Superior.
​
Free Wednesday night Bayside concerts are offered during the summer months.  Other events such as weddings have occurred and a Farmer's Market is held regularly at the park.

You cannot help but notice an impressive statue of a seaman overlooking the Pavilion.  It is dedicated to the "SEAMEN OF THE GREAT LAKES", sculpted by William Bradford Frost from the University of Wisconsin-Superior, assisted by Debra Anunti, and erected in 1979.  It was inspired by the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald on November 10, 1975, in which all 29 seamen perished and later made famous by Gordon Lightfoot's recording.OI c n t

​The SS Meteor Maritime Museum is located in the waters adjacent to the pavilion.  It hosts the last of the remaining whaleback freighters in the world.  Built in Superior, the term comes from the shape of the ship - cigar shaped - and it rode low in the water when loaded with cargo.
