We have a 36-hole golf course and driving range, as well as an aquatic center, nature preserve and center, boat rental operation, a skate park and an athletic complex.
• In the arts, Winneshiek Theater is the country’s oldest continuously running amateur theater, and we’re especially proud that Freeport High School has a Grammy Award Winning music program. We have concerts in the park on summer evenings, a children’s choir and theater group, a wonderful Arts Center and an impressive historical museum.
