Camper Hits Building at Hodag Fest Grounds

Pine Lake Fire Department Facebook

Firefighters from Pine Lake got called to the Hodag Fest Grounds when a camper hit a building.

In a Facebook post, the Pine Lake Fire Department reports they got called out at 1:50 p.m. Sunday to find a camper had caused structural damage to one of the rest room facilities behind the pavilion.

The owner was trying to move the camper when the accelerator apparently got stuck, causing the accident.

Firefighters helped festival staff with temporary bracing of the building so that the camper could be removed.

The Oneida County Sheriff’s Office and Oneida County Ambulance service also responded to the call.
