HAWLEY, PA — The sixth annual Wally Lake Fest will be held from August 28 to 30, and features fun on Lake Wallenpaupack as well as in and around the Lake Region, with activities and events for people of all ages, from boat parades to craft shows and ice cream socials to kayak demonstrations.

There are many returning events people look forward to including the open market fair; the boat, watercraft and outdoor show; live music on the lake; the boat parade; the “Tour de Towpath” bike ride; and many others.

One of the most popular Wally Lake Fest events is sailboating on the lake, to be offered on August 29. People who always wanted to sail but may not know how, can experience the sport at Lighthouse Harbor Marina from 1 to 4 p.m. The sailboats depart approximately every hour for a one hour sail. Members of the Paupack Sailing Club volunteer their time, boats and skill to give people a one-of-a-kind experience.

Reservations are required and are accepted beginning on July 31 at 10 a.m. Call the Lake Wallenpaupack Visitors Center at 570/226-2141. A $5 donation is asked, which will support the American Red Cross.
