Shabbona Lake State Park

What do you get when you combine dragons, boats, a touch of “oh my!” and 22 dedicated athletes? The coolest sport you’ve never heard of! Dragon boating has roots in ancient China and branches all over the world…including a lake near you. The Under Rocks crew dons life vests and heads to Shabbona Lake for their latest adventure.

Independence Day fireworks will be on full display tonight at dusk at Shabbona Lake State Park in Shabbona, IL. A full list of July 4th fireworks around our listening area is available at the bottom of the story.

The reservation represents just a small portion of the Prairie Band Potawatomi's claim to over 1200 acres, which mostly is located in what is now the Illinois Shabbona Lake State Park.
