North Beach
A GREAT PLACETO PLAY
North Beach is a crown jewel . This 50 acres of carefully groomed sand and clear water is located along Lake Michigan, just north of Downtown Racine .
It’s easy to spend a family-friendly day here playing in the sand, enjoying the Beachfront Oasis, a snack bar and live music venue; exploring Kids Cove, a playground constructed by community volunteers; playing a pick-up game of volleyball, or using the unique wheelchair-accessible pathway to the lakeshore . You may just want to soak up the sun in a hammock beneath the palm trees .

OUTDOORS in Racine County
In 2004, North Beach became the first beach in Wisconsin to earn the Blue Wave Beach designation from the National Clean Beaches Council . The City of Racine, the beach’s owner, has worked hard to keep it a Blue Wave Beach . North Beach is among the first Great Lakes beaches where daily test results for waterborne bacteria are available in just a few hours . Water quality-related beach closures are practically non-existent .
Drawn by sun, fun and sand, visitors have responded in a big way . An estimated 200,000 people visit North Beach annually . The Ironman 70 .3 Racine triathlon, held in July, attracts 2,500 athletes from around the world .
North Beach lifeguards are on duty from Memorial Day through Labor Day . Admission and parking are free .

Of the more than 300 miles of Lake Michigan’s Wisconsin shoreline, a 25-mile stretch can truly lay claim to the title “sport fishing sweet spot .”
Those 25 miles — from the Illinois state line to the Oak Creek Power Plant — produce 38 percent of all fish caught on charter boats in Wisconsin . Fishing charters in these waters catch an eye-popping 58 percent of all Coho salmon, 43 percent of all lake trout, 39 percent of all brown trout, 17 percent of all Chinook salmon and 12 percent of all rainbow trout (steelheads .)
Given those statistics, it’s no wonder Racine is an extremely popular port for fishing enthusiasts from across the country . How can you get in on the action?
An excellent starting point is to connect with an experienced, licensed charter captain . Fishing Charters of Racine is an association of 14 captains who thoroughly know the most productive Lake Michigan hot spots . Visit www .fishracinewi .com .
Take these steps as you plan your Lake Michigan sport fishing trip:
n Determine your party size — The Coast Guard sets a maximum limit of six (6) people per charter boat .
n Choose your fishing times — Charter trips are typically 5 hours or 8 hours . Normal morning times are 7 a .m . to noon and normal afternoon times are 1 to 6 p .m . Additional hours or special hours can be arranged to meet your needs . Overnight packages are available .
n Book a date — Fishing Charters of Racine members require a $100 deposit to secure your charter date . Deposits are fully refundable with a 10-day prior notice .
n Obtain fishing licenses and stamps — A Wisconsin fishing license and a Great Lakes Salmon/Trout stamp are required for residents and non-residents . A two-day license is available . Purchase online at: www .dnr .state .wi .us .
FISHINGTHE SWEET SPOT
in Racine County
HOME OF THE BIG ONE!Racine and its charter captains are proud
of SALMON-A-RAMA, a nationally known fishing tournament held annually in mid-July. This derby-style contest, covering all of Lake Michigan, offers a $15,000 grand prize for the biggest fish overall. There are also cash prizes in individual fish species categories as well as a one-day Super Sweepstakes contest.
Salmon-A-Rama is presented by Salmon Unlimited of Wisconsin. Visit www.salmon-a-rama.com.
Don’t think there aren’t big fish to be caught! A world’s record 41.15-pound brown trout, caught off Wind Point, took the 2010 Salmon-A-Rama grand prize.
FISHING THE ROOTTHE ROOT RIVER, which winds through
parts of the City of Racine and the Village of Mount Pleasant, is renowned for fly fishing, as large trout and salmon make their way upstream to spawn in the spring and fall.
The Root is easily accessible to anglers. Public access is available along the Root River Parkway, Cedar Bend Park, Island Park, Lincoln Park and Colonial Park.
The Root River Steelhead Facility, located in Lincoln Park off Dominik Drive, is a Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource (DNR) facility used to collect eggs and fish for hatchery purposes. During the spawning runs, visitors may watch fish through viewing windows and in a holding pond.

The county, and its cities, villages and towns, all have parkland where visitors can simply stretch their legs or enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, swimming, cycling and fishing or organized sports .
The Racine County parks system has a wide variety of sites, including:
RACINE HARBOR PARK, 16 acres, Christopher Columbus Causeway, Racine, features an overlook structure with an elevated deck that provides a great view of the Racine Harbor and Lake Michigan. There is also shore fishing access and a free fish cleaning station.
QUARRY LAKE PARK, 40 acres, Northwestern Avenue, Racine and Mount Pleasant is a former limestone quarry. This spring-fed lake is popular for swimming, scuba diving and fishing. The park also offers picnic areas and a large bathhouse that can be reserved for private events. The Karen A. Nelson Memorial Dog Park is located near the main entrance to the park.
HORLICK PARK AND ROOT RIVER PARKWAY, 650 acres, Racine, Caledonia and Raymond. Located near Rapids Drive and North Green Bay Road, Horlick Park has a boat launch for small boats and canoes. The Root River Parkway provides green space along the upper reaches of the river.
SANDERS PARK, 80 acres, Wood Road, Mount Pleasant. This park features a marked nature trail through a designated State Scientific area. There is also a 5-acre campground, athletic facilities and picnic areas.
PRITCHARD PARK, 79 acres, Ohio Street and Durand Avenue, Racine. The Veterans Memorial and Wieczorek Pavilion are among the highlights of this park. The pond located near the pavilion provides fishing experiences for kids. The park also has baseball diamonds, a soccer field, playground and a jogging trail.
CLIFFSIDE PARK, 233 acres, Michna Road, Caledonia. One of the county’s best-known parks because of its 92-acre campground. The park also has baseball/softball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts and soccer fields, as well as a large shelter area and picnic tables, grills and electrical outlets.
GREEN R A C I N E
COLONEL HEG MEMORIAL PARK, 20 acres, 6300 Heg Park Road, Norway. An 1830s log cabin and museum, staffed by the Wind Lake Historical Society, provides history education on summer weekend afternoons.
EVANS PARK, 66 acres, Highway 20 (just west of the Highway C intersection), Yorkville. Tucked away from a busy highway is a small, simple park that offers a quiet spot for people looking for a break from the routine.
EAGLE LAKE PARK, 25 acres, Church Road, Dover. A beautiful shelter with picnic tables, grills, electrical outlets and a lake view await Eagle Lake picnickers. There are also playgrounds and areas for volleyball and baseball. The lake is popular for fishing all year round.
BUSHNELL PARK, 95 acres, Town of Burlington, along the Fox River. This park includes baseball and soccer fields, horseshoe courts, large shelter, picnic grounds, playground equipment, a trail system and fishing spots.
EINER FISCHER PARK, 53 acres, Highway 11, Burlington. Beach access to Browns Lake. Lifeguards from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Picnic tables and boat launch. Park admission charge and boat launch fee during the summer.
A pair of 415-foot wind turbines is a prominent part of eastern Racine County’s skyline. The turbines, which produce about 8 million kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity annually (enough power for 700 homes), supply power for SC Johnson’s Waxdale manufacturing facility in the Village of Mount Pleasant. The plant — the size of 36 football fields — also uses waste methane gas from a nearby landfill and clean-burning natural gas to generate its own electrical energy.

E The Real Racine Visitor Center, at I-94 and Highway 20, is Racine County’s first Travel Green Wisconsin (TGW)-certified location. The building, based on a design inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, is energy efficient. Its grounds include a rain garden, which
naturally diffuses rainwater, and a demonstration organic vegetable garden. TGW, initiated by the Wisconsin Department of Tourism, is the first state-sponsored sustainable travel certification program in the nation.

Racine County’s rich history is celebrated every day!The county — and city — take their
names from “racine,” the French word for root . The Root River, named for the tangled tree roots along its banks, enters Lake Michigan in a natural harbor . This harbor area became the original settlement in the 1830s for what became Racine County .
A great starting point to explore Racine County history is the Racine Heritage Museum, 701 Main St ., Racine . This compact museum, housed in a former Carnegie Library building, contains exhibits that tell stories of the fascinating, innovative people who have called Racine County home . These include astronaut Laurel Clark, inventor A .B Modine, agricultural industrialist J .I . Case and the SC Johnson family .
Other exhibits include the Racine area’s many inventions, such as Horlick’s Malted Milk, the Hamilton Beach food mixer, the In-Sink-Erator waste disposer and the Twin Disc clutch . The museum also includes a look at Racine’s abolitionists and their Underground Railroad as well as stories of Lake Michigan sailing and shipbuilding .
A newer feature — the Racine County Sports Hall of Fame — celebrates the accomplishments of the county’s many athletes, including baseball’s Duane Kuiper, basketball’s Jim McIlvaine and cycling’s Erin Mirabella . The Heritage Museum is open Tuesdays through Saturdays . Admission is free . Donations are welcome . www .racineheritagemuseum .org

ARTS and Architecture
Legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) left a significant legacy in the Racine area through his long association with the SC Johnson family . Several Wright-designed and Wright-inspired buildings are now open to the public .
The SC Johnson campus at 1525 Howe St . in Racine is anchored by the Wright-designed SC Johnson Administration Building and Research Tower . Both are featured on the National Register of Historic Places .
The Administration Building, completed in 1939, features the Great Workroom, a large open space supported by a series of unique, concrete dendriform columns .
The 15-story Research Tower (1950) was constructed based on the cantilever principle . It’s the birthplace of several of SC Johnson’s most famous products that include Pledge®,
Scrubbing Bubbles® and OFF® . The tower will open for public tours in the spring of 2014 after extensive renovations .
The Golden Rondelle Theatre was constructed for the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair . Redesigned by Taliesin Associated Architects, a group founded by Wright, the structure now serves as a venue for films and public events .

It’s deliciously official! In June 2013, Wisconsin law designated Kringle as the official State Pastry .
KRINGLEWisconsin’s State Pastry
This distinctive oval-shaped, flaky pastry has been a Racine County tradition since Danish immigrants brought it to Wisconsin in the mid-19th century .
An authentic Danish Kringle is 32 layers of flaky, buttery dough filled with a variety of fruits and nuts and baked until golden brown . Varieties include pecan, almond, raspberry, cherry, apple, strawberry and cream cheese . Among seasonal selections are turtle, cranberry, cinnamon and key lime .
Kringle making is a time- and labor-intensive process . Bakers repeatedly fold together butter and flour and then refrigerate the dough to produce a delicate, flaky texture .
The effort is well worth it! Kringle from Racine has gained an enthusiastic worldwide following . You may have seen it featured on TV, including the Food Network, the Travel Channel and the “Today Show .”
You’ll easily find Kringle at local bakeries, grocery stores and other outlets throughout the area . Our bakers proudly ship their Kringle all over the world — particularly during the Christmas holiday season .
Go ahead, enjoy a taste of the Official Wisconsin Pastry from America’s Kringle Capital!
KRINGLE LOCATIONSYou’ll have no problem finding Danish
Kringle in Racine County . The popular pastry is available at each bakery, as well as many area grocery stores and other outlets . Or, if you prefer, you can order Kringle through each bakery’s website .

KRINGLE FUN FACTS• Kringle takes its name from certain knots and
cleats in Scandinavian sailing lingo.• Kringle was originally pretzel-shaped. Racine
bakers adopted the easy-to-serve oval shape that contains more delicious filling.
• It takes about three days to make a Kringle from start to finish.
• Almond, pecan and raspberry are among the most popular Kringle flavors.
• President Obama took home three Kringles (pecan, cherry and cheese) during a June 2010 visit to Racine.

The Wind Point Lighthouse, 4725 Lighthouse Drive, Wind Point, is the oldest and tallest working lighthouse on Lake Michigan .
The 112-foot structure was built in 1880 to warn ships of the shallow waters off Wind Point . The project, including the light keeper’s quarters and adjacent structures, cost $40,000 .
The beacon, magnified by a Fresnel lens imported from France, was originally a mineral oil lamp . A light keeper and two assistants were needed to maintain and operate the light 24 hours a day . The light can be seen 19 miles away .
The light was later converted to electricity and the Wind Point Lighthouse became fully automated in 1964 . Today, the structure serves as the Wind Point Village Hall . The
beautifully maintained grounds are open to visitors daily .
A nearby building, which once housed a fog horn, is now a maritime museum open daily during the summer months .
The Friends of the Wind Point Lighthouse offers tower climbs in the summer and early fall . A rigorous climb up the 144 steps delivers spectacular views of Lake Michigan and the surrounding countryside .
Tower climb dates for 2014 are: June 1, July 6, Aug . 3, Sept . 7 and Oct . 5 . For details and reservations, visit www .windpointlighthouse .com or call 262-880-8266 .

Spirit of the Racine Entrepreneur.
We asked readers of our Facebook page and e-newsletter to suggest “Hidden Gems” in Racine County. Here are a few of them:
SIENA ON THE LAKE5635 ERIE ST., CALEDONIA262-639-4100“Experience the cliffs and the outdoor walking labyrinth on the Siena grounds. Visitors are welcomed for reflection, gazing on the lake and mediating while walking the grass labyrinth. For peace, serenity, beauty and an attitude adjustment, it can’t be beat.”
FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH716 COLLEGE AVE., RACINE262-632-1686“The free tour that First Presbyterian Church offers of its Underground Railroad stop is definitely a hidden gem. Artifacts found during a renovation provide evidence that fugitive slaves once hid beneath the church on their way to Canada and freedom.”
SPIRIT OF THE RACINE ENTREPRENEUR1405 16TH ST., RACINE262-637-3958“The Spirit of the Racine Entrepreneur exhibit is just fascinating.” The display includes a sleigh, a buggy suitcases, a bird cage, a rocking horse and more — all made in Racine. Open 12 to 1 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays.
EAGLE LAKE“For beautiful sunsets, you just can’t top Eagle Lake.” Located one-half mile north of Highway 11 (Durand Avenue) in the Town of Dover. Also accessible at Eagle Lake Park approximately a half-mile west of Highway 75 (Beaumont Avenue) on Church Road.

Relaxation starts as soon as you turn off the major highways and on to one of the rural roads that meander through Racine County .
It probably won’t take long to spot an example of “Quilts on Barns—the Beauty of Rural Art .” This public art project has placed 21 colorful quilt patterns (mounted on 8-by-8 foot square plywood pieces) on historic barns throughout the county .
The brainchild of local quilt enthusiast Kathi Wilson, “Quilts on Barns” was sponsored by the nonprofit Racine Arts Council in conjunction with Real Racine .
These distinctive designs include Bear’s Paw, Wild Goose Chase, Corn and Beans, Tulip Basket and Black-Eyed Susan . The route, which threads its way through the countryside, is particularly attractive in the spring and fall . You’ll want to allow at least a half-day to see them all .
A “Quilts on Barns” map display can be seen at the Real Racine Visitor Center, 14015 Washington Ave . (I-94 Exit 333), where travel counselors are happy to give directions . The Visitor Center is open daily from 9 a .m . to 5 p .m . from May though October . Closed Sundays November through April .
The Quilts on Barns locations are indicated by barn-shaped symbols on the fold-out Racine County map found at back of the 2014 Real Racine Visitors Guide . Or, visit the Quilts on Barns website: www .quiltsonbarns .com .
Whether its spotting barn quilts or simply exploring the scenic back rounds, visitors will find beauty and surprises at every turn .
Many of the area’s most popular attractions, such as the Wind Point Lighthouse, Swan’s Pumpkin Farm, Apple Holler and Borzynski’s Farm and Floral Market, are minutes from the Racine County Quilts on Barns route .
