I found it to be the most intriguing of the cars on Main Street for Thursdays on Main. If you find yourself in Clear Lake on a Thursday evening through August 25, 2016, meander downtown, as you will be glad you did.

Tip #2: Bring a lawnchair for Thursdays on Main. This way you will have “your” spot for the evening festivities.

If you are looking for the ultimate midwest 4th of July Celebration, Clear Lake is your town! The carnival, entertainment and fireworks will bring “simple” back into your life. I don’t know about you, but simple wins in my book.

Tip #3: Find your seat for fireworks viewing on the 4th of July by 6:00 p.m. at the seawall. Pack a cooler, lawn chairs and a card game or two to pass some time with your kiddos.
