The Muskego Icetronauts was started in December of 1968, by a  group of friends interested in snowmobiling. The name "Icetronauts", a spin-off  of the space program that was in full swing at the time, was chosen as the  club's name.  

Our club's primary purpose is to promote safe snowmobiling,  provide safe trails and activities and be of service to the community of  Muskego.

History

Veteran's Park Muskego

The annual DandiLion Daze Festival (formerly Muskego Community Festival) is held the fourth weekend of August at Muskego’s Veteran’s Memorial Park.

In 1987, community leaders determined the quality of life and community spirit of Muskego residents would be improved by the city having a weekend long family orientated community event.  The festival is often referred to as “the official end of summer.” 

DandiLion Daze Festival offers free admission, carnival rides, diversified food court and musical performances by SE Wisconsin’s' hottest bands. 


Festival Sunday features the DandiLion Daze Festival Parade.  In past years, the festival has offered a petting zoo, magic shows, light shows, professional wrestling, trout fishing, historical site tours, antique tractor displays, circus and stage shows such as Kids from Wisconsin and New Horizon Singers. 

DandiLion Daze Festival is entirely executed by volunteer workers from seven of Muskego’s service organizations.

Dandilion Park

Muskego Beach Amusement Park

By 1987, Dandilion Park (Muskego Beach Amusement Park) had long been gone. The amusement park located on the southern bank of the Muskego Lake was a great place for games, rides, music and beach, but closed in 1977. Some of Muskego’s community service group leaders thought it was time again to offer the citizens of Muskego an event and place to celebrate with family and the spirit of the community. The first weekend long family-orientated community event to be known as Muskego Community Festival was born.


That was over 30 years ago!


The first festival was held on empty grounds where Pick and Save stands today. As the festival grew, there was a need for more space and the celebration moved to the grounds next to City Hall. 


The family-orientated community event created in 1987 has blossomed into one of the largest free multi day festivals in southeast Wisconsin featuring music for all ages, top bands from the area, variety of food, a carnival, a corn-hole tournament, a 5K Corndog race/walk and a parade. Traditionally held the fourth weekend in August, it has often been referred to as the “official end of summer”. 


This is the only festival in the area which has seven collaborating community service groups that meet all year long to plan, present and staff this event. 


The seven groups are: 

· Muskego Woman’s Club

· Muskego Moose Family Center #1057

· VFW#8171

· Muskego Icetronauts Snowmobile Club

· Muskego Athletic Association

· Muskego Lions Club

· Muskego Area Chamber of Commerce


· Little Muskego Lakes Association 1987-2022

· American Legion Post #356 1987-2020


Any excess net funds from the event are shared among the seven groups. Each group uses the funds to provide community enhancement programs in support of education, child services, city beautification, community events, patriotism as well as their own mission. 


Today, as the times change, so does the festival. Muskego Community Festival will continue to offer our favorite things but will be now be known as DandiLion Daze! .
