"The Young Swimmers" sculpted by James F. Hopfensperger is one of the attractions on Stephenson Island in Marinette, WI.


Area Parks & Places of Interest:

NOTE: I have decided to take photos of these parks and other places while most of the facilities are closed for the season in order to show all the things that each has to offer. As the summer progresses, I will post photos of the facilities in full swing, with people enjoying outings to these places.

Photos of the different areas of Red Arrow Park in Marinette, WI taken on a gorgeous April 22, 2009 morning. BE SURE TO check out the unique "Memorial Structure" and its featured photos! I would have normally put these into a slideshow; however, due to some of the photos being different shapes than normal, and due to the fact that the slideshow drastically reduces the sizes of the photos (which would make reading some of the lettering on some of the signs and monuments difficult), I decided to put these in my normal text-link format.

Photos of the different attracions that are to be found on Stephenson Island in Marinette, WI Again, I would have normally put these into a slideshow; however, again, since some of the photos are of odd shapes, and due to the fact that the slideshow drastically reduces the sizes of the photos (which would make reading some of the lettering on some of the signs and monuments difficult), I decided to put these in my normal text-link format.

I will take you on a counterclockwise tour of the park, as that is the direction of vehicular traffic. I will also show you some of the park facilities and well laid out, groomed trails that crisscross the park. Note: the many trails are all named after English Poets.

I want to thank my friend, Scott Best, for some of the information provided regarding the park facilities.

Park Entrance - is framed by two stone archways for pedestrians. Years ago, the roadway was also under a stone arch.

Shoreline - The stone lining the road is rip-rap that was put in place during an extremely high-water year (1985)

Home that used to be IN Henes Park! - This home on the corner of M-35 and Henes Park Drive used to be in the Park in the area where the first pavillion now sits. The building was moved from the Park grounds to its current location many year ago; it became Bailey's Grocery Store, and then an apartment building. The home is possibly one of the oldest buildings in Menominee. (Information from Jim Borski of the Menominee County Historical Society).
