Wabeno

Wabeno Bandshell Park
The curved Wabeno bandshell boldly announces itself along Highway 32 which passes through the center of the community.  A Memorial Walkway with a flagpole sits in front of it with engraved brick pavers commemorating community members while benches surround the Walkway; Twenty-two foot Larry the Log Roller stands next to it.  Artistic wrought iron fencing styled with evergreen trees and deer decorate the side stage areas of the shell. 

​In May 2011, the bandshell was destroyed by a storm.  However, with much community effort in May 2012, it was restored.  The September 9, 2013, Pioneer Press describes the official dedication of it with Louis Mallow describing how his father had been part of the creation and construction of the original bandshell in 1941.

Musical events are held during the summer such as Steam Up Days  and the Wabeno Art and Music Festival in early August.

​The small community of Wabeno has many attractions that celebrate its history, including an 1897 library and schoolhouse and the 1941 Wabeno Logging Museum.  You cannot miss Larry the Log Roller, a 22+ foot fiberglass statue that underwent renovation after storm damage and was then unveiled.  Larry's overpowering presence sits next to the bandshell.
