Orofino Lumberjack Days
When: September 16th – 19th
Where: Orofino, ID
63rd Anniversary Show
1947-2010
In 1947, it was decided to have a three day celebration of parades, concessions, games, contests and publicity to promote the town of Orofino and the county of Clearwater. The activities held that first year were a big parade, a knot hole derby (race for boys driving cars they built themselves from wood and scraps), a model airplane contest, kid’s parade, fiddler’s contest and a lumberjack show.
The Lumberjack Show was started with the idea of furthering our lumbering industry and way of life, along with that of farming. This was going to be carried out by contests that showed the arts and skills of the logger, especially those skills that were dying out due to mechanization.
On Sept. 28, 1947, the first Lumberjack Day was held with approximately 4,000 people watching the events of chopping, bucking, two man sawing and a team pulling contest. It was a huge success and changed the county fair as it had been. Thus the idea was born and has been continued for 59 years with many changes being made along the way, but the general idea of promoting the forest industry and the loggers’ way of life is still upheld.
