Roosevelt, Minnesota, is located between Warroad
and Baudette on State Highway 11. Roosevelt is centrally located near
Beltrami Island State Forest and Lake of the Woods. Also near Roosevelt
is Zippel
Bay State Park. Many people pass through this area on their way to
fishing, snowmobiling, camping or some other outdoor activity. Thousands
of people visit Roosevelt every year for the annual flea market on July
3rd and 4th. Over 60 booths with antiques and collectables fill the
indoor arena. The city also provides food and an eating area to help
complete this social event. The first weekend in August is also an
attraction for visitors at the annual Steam and Gas Show, which is held
at the Grove farm north of Roosevelt. This event provides a glimpse into
the past of farming. There is a parade of old steam engines and
tractors, as well as other historical exhibits. Also see the Lake of the Woods web site. |
