Hastings MN Rivertown Days
Located just 5 miles away across the St Croix River and the Mississippi River is the town of Hastings. This cute river town is having a celebration this weekend. We thought we would list what we found for their schedule of events. Our bed and breakfast is conveniently located close to the action yet off the beaten path in a quiet cul-de-sac in Prescott, WI
As always, times and events are subject to change.
