Two Rivers

Central Memorial Park Bandshell
Picture
Two Rivers Central Memorial Park is in the heart of downtown Two Rivers.  In 1976 the bandstand was built and dedicated to Lorenz Lueck, the City Band director from 1921 to 1961.  A Bicentennial time capsule with 1976 mementos was placed there and is to be open July 4, 2026.

Local service clubs - Kiwanis, Rotary, Jaycees Lions, and Silver K Kiwanis - helped to raise the goal of $24,000 needed to built the bandstand.  Plans for an acoustically designed shell that can hold up to 60 people on stage were created by Gene Maloney.  Groundbreaking was in May and construction took about one month.  The new bandshell replaced a structure from 1902.  In 2016 the roof was replaced, it was painted, and wind/sunscreen was added on the west side.  Benches surrounding the stage can accommodate 300.

Free concerts are held every Thursday evenings during the summer months.  It is also used for dances, weddings, and other entertainment.

Two Rivers is known as the birthplace of the ice cream sundae.  Although other cities claim this title, this the only one endorsed by the National Register of Historic Places.   A Wisconsin Historical Marker in Central Park tells the story and banners have lined the streets celebrating it as the "Home of the Ice Cream Sundae".
