Experience Mule Day: Like A Local

Your Ultimate Guide to Experience Mule Day Like A Local

Mule Day is an experience like no other! From the town pride to the mule day parade to the craft fairs to the mule pulls and other activities, there won't be a day throughout the week that you will not be entertained.

Wednesday

Watch the Mule Train come into town! Our advice is to find a parking spot at a business along Hampshire Pike/Highway 412- not past Lions Pkwy. The Mule Train typically enters town around 3:00 PM.
