Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Who puts on the Mount Horeb Summer Frolic?
A: The four-day event is organized by the Mount Horeb Summer Frolic Board of Directors, whose members represent numerous local service organizations, youth sports clubs and the Mount Horeb Area Chamber of Commerce. A portion of the proceeds from the Frolic are distributed to these organizations; about half of the proceeds go back into the community — with priority given to parks and recreation — through various projects and initiatives.
Q: Where do the rides and games come from?
A: Mr. Ed’s Magical Midway Carnival, based in North Freedom, Wis., provides rides, games and food stands at the Frolic.
Q: What food options are available?
A: In addition to culinary carnival favorites like cotton candy, snow cones and elephant ears, the Mount Horeb Rotary Club runs a grill offering burgers, grilled cheese and hot dogs in the lower shelter. There are also a variety of foods for sale in the beer tent, including steak sandwiches, walking tacos and brats.
Q: Is there an ATM on site?
A: Yes. Service charges will apply.
