"Wisconsin-Happy Festival State", by Eve Phillips. My husband and I love to travel in the state of Wisconsin where we live and get great pictures on the way. My name is Laurie Kutil and photography has become a great passion of mine since 2010. One thing I have learned in researching each town before visiting it is that, "Every town has it's story". When I do uncover those stories by connecting with local residents, our experience becomes so much richer. In turn, sharing the stories with you brings me joy :)
No visit to Shawano is complete without a visit to Sundrop University, home of Twig’s beverage and Sundrop Citrus Soda. Not only can you buy the soda right here (as well as in grocery stores), you can tour their museum. It looks bigger on the inside than the outside. Give yourself at least 2 hours to explore.
Inside the lobby when you walk in the museum begins. There is so much to see here.
There is also a small movie theater that shows the history of Sundrop and Trig’s. Very interesting. We recorded it to show it to you.
A peek inside the warehouse, you can’t go in.
There is so much to see here, so many artifacts of Trig’s are preserved and in fine condition.
Belly up to the “bar” for some Sundrop flavor samples, yum!
Don’t forget to stop in the gift shop, bring home a great memento of your visit! I picked up a beautiful mug by Sunset Hill Stoneware, great for drinking your Sundrop soda in!
A must-see in Shawano, Sundrop is a fun place to visit!
