Commemorative Wooden Nickel: Available at Roslyn area businesses

This Labor Day Weekend, Roslyn will celebrate its 12th Annual Coal Miner Days Festival.   This year is extra special because Roslyn is also celebrating the city’s 125th Anniversary.   The annual event pays tribute to those miners (and their families) who forged Roslyn’s rich history.  Over the course of the weekend, the city will host festivities that include music, vendors, a beer garden, food, games, a soap box derby, a logging show, and more!  It all builds up to the Heritage Ceremony, King Coal Crowning, and Grand Parade on Sunday.  Come out to Roslyn to share in the memories and celebrate the days when coal was king!  More information on activities and timing can be found here.

Tina-Marie leads the artistic effort to liven up Roslyn storefronts for the celebration.
