56 Years Later...Trout-A-Rama is Still Going Strong

Posted: Updated:

Back in 1956, the town of Baldwin created a fun summer festival to show off Lake County to tourists.

A popular fishing area, they named the event Trout-A-Rama.

Well, 56 years later the event is still going strong.

Trout-A-Rama kicked off yesterday with tons of carnival rides and game vendors behind the main drag in Baldwin.

They battled a little rain today, but with plenty of live music, organizers are expecting the  biggest crowds for the weekend.
