Events Lumberjack Show Faster
than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. No it’s not Superman
- these “men of steel” are LUMBERJACKS! Captivating
audiences for the past 25 years, Timberworks Lumberjack Show Powered by STIHL
provides images of man against the impossible along with the sport derived
out of a nation’s heritage. The
Show includes such events as axe throwing, chopping, log rolling, cross cut
sawing, hot sawing and chainsaw carving. These century old skills were used
in the logging camps of North America. To pass idle time, lumberjacks would
challenge each other in a head-to-head competition. Although technology and
machinery have replaced manual labor, the skills are still used today by the
Lumberjacks in the STIHL Timberworks Lumberjack Show. Feel
the rush of adrenaline as competitors race up poles
at lightning speed or saw through twelve inches of aspen with the speed of a
modern day chain saw. Then move to the edge of your seat as competitors show
off their fancy footwork while running on logs or axe throw with the
precision of a dart board champion. Timberworks Lumberjack Shows has been
featured on ABC’s Wide World of Sports, TNN,
ESPN Jeep Trails, Discovery Channel’s “The Travelers,” MTV’s The Real
World and Road Rules and the Family Channel and the Outdoor Life Network. Drawing
live audiences of over one million combined, Timberworks Lumberjack Shows is
an exciting and entertaining adventure providing a unique blend of sports, history
and comedy and includes an opportunity for the audience to experience a
nostalgic logging competition of the early 1900s. |
