‘Wave Parties’ bid goodbye to Wisconsin’s summer, tourists
Update: 2025-09-03
Description
As summer comes to an end, tourists begin to leave Wisconsin’s northwoods. Every year on Labor Day, people line Highway 51 and wave to the tourists as they head home. As WPR’s Bridgit Bowden tells us, these “wave parties” are a way of saying “thanks for coming,” but also, “thanks for leaving.”
