All right, guys,
what are we doing today?
Can we start out
with biking? Sounds fun.
Can we go kayaking after?
Ice cream sounds good.
And finish it with a movie.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Lets go!
You can do it all
in Calumet County.
We're starting our day
in Calumet County Park,
one of the best campgrounds
in Wisconsin,
right on the shores
of Lake Winnebago.
There's so
much to offer here
at Calumet County Park.
We have just under 7000
feet of shoreline.
We have outcroppings
of the Niagara Escarpment
coming through the park.
A lot of great hiking
trails and biking,
camping, boating,
fishing, everything.
Are there other hot
spots
like the
prime campsite spots
that are coveted
by the regulars?
Definitely. There are?
So kind of right behind us
here.
We have at sites 49 through
54, right on the lake shore.
The upper park is a
really gorgeous area
to actually be camping
in the woods
and it's a little
bit more private up there,
a little quieter.
Well, our campsite
is set up.
It's time
to explore the park.
And there's so much to do.
Bike trails, hiking
trails, a boat launch,
and their educational
programs are fantastic.
Let's go.
(Music)
We did a lot in one day.
Yeah. Yeah.
Hey,
how about some ice cream?
All right.
There are several options
for good
old fashioned Wisconsin
ice cream in Calumet County.
This is Scoops Ice
Cream House in Chilton.
They handcraft the ice cream
in small batches
right here in the store.
And there are 16 flavors
all year round, plus another
eight flavors that
they rotate seasonally.
How am I going to decide?
Okay, so flavors.
What's it?
Tell me the best
flavors here.
Two of the top top sellers
are sea salt caramel,
which we make the
caramel sauce for that.
And then a death
by chocolate, which is a
triple chocolate ice cream.
You've got
more than just ice cream.
I'm looking at your sign.
There's sundaes
and all sorts of
different things.
We do floats,
avalanches, shakes, malts,
custom ice cream
cakes, ice cream sandwiches.
And if I understand
correctly, you make
all your ice cream
in that little room
over there.
Our ice cream is made here.
All of our mix comes
from local farms
in our area.
A fun way to end
the day is tailgating
and taking in a movie
at the Children Twilight
Drive in theater.
There's a great concession
stand where you can
get popcorn, soda and candy
and they even make
their own pizza.
Plus, there's an arcade
and mini golf outside.
You can check that out
before the movie starts.
And then
when the sun goes down,
you can roll out
that picnic blanket, set up
some lawn chairs,
settle in and get ready
to check out the latest
summer blockbuster.
What do you love about
drive in theaters?
The coolest thing I think
is you see the families come
and they see that
big 75 foot screen
and their eyes are
big as golf balls.
I mean, I just love that.
Come early.
Kind of make a day of it,
you know,
swing on the swings.
Do the mini golf.
Throw some yard
dice to a cartoon.
First the kids fall asleep
and then mom and
dad can snuggle up
and watch the late show.
This really
is the perfect end
to a day of making memories
with my kids here
in Calumet County.
Lots of time outside.
Lots of laughs.
You should bring
your own family.
Double. Double.
Good job. You saw that?
