7th Annual New Year’s Eve Cherry Drop

The Cherry Drop. Submitted.

Hundreds of revelers will gather in Sister Bay on New Year’s Eve for what has become a Door County tradition. The Cherry Drop, from FM 106.9 The Lodge, will be back at Husby’s Garage on Dec. 31. A crane will hoist the 300-pound cherry made of lights 120 feet above the ground on the day of the drop. The official countdown for the drop will begin shortly before midnight, but the crowd will gather earlier as The Lodge spins tunes outside beginning at 10:30 pm. The Village of Sister Bay invites everyone to come shop, dine and see the holiday light displays and, at 8 pm the annual fireworks at the Sister Bay Sports Complex, located at 2155 Autumn Court in Sister Bay.
