Chainsaws, a beer garden, and live music – sounds like a perfect summer day! What could be better? How about adding a handmade art festival? Yes! What started over 15 years ago as an annual carver party by Jeffro Uitto, a popular local wood artist & carver, now hosts a giant party that everyone is invited to. Woodfest has a local-friendly vibe that extends to two days of live music, food, local and visiting arts, and yes, live chainsaw carving by some of the most talented carvers in the region. This event has grown in popularity and traffic congestion can be an issue, therefore parking at the Tokeland Hotel is reserved for guests and handicapped visitors only. Please use the Shoalwater Bay Casino shuttle to/from the event as regular parking is limited. More info: Tokeland-North Cove Chamber of Commerce – Tokeland, Events (tokelandnorthcove.com)
