Come on out for our last Friday in the Pines concert of the season!

We are excited to have CAB Street Band preforming here for the first time, and you're going to want to put on your dancing shoes because their music is rockin'!

"CAB Street Band brings a unique blend of music to every performance, covering everything from timeless classics to today's favorites. From Etta James to Amy Winehouse, Santana to The Beatles, the set list has something for everyone. What makes CAB Street Band special is the way we make every song our own-with our signature funky, jazzy, bluesy, swingin style."

Did You Know that the old Shaver mill site lies at the bottom of the current Shaver Lake, which is about 27 times larger than the original mill pond? The Shaver Mill operated from 1894-1914, when heavy winter snow severely damaged part of the flume.
The History of Shaver Lake exhibit here at the museum is not to be missed! You’ll even get to see photos of the remains from the actual mill site that were taken in 2011 when the lake was drained for dam repairs.
