Standing tall since the nation's Bicentennial in 1976, the big fiberglass lake country explorer was made by F.A.S.T. Corp..

It took us a while to find the Voyageur statue, too. It's near the fort by the river, not in the campground.

This is definitely still there, I visited it August of 2009. It is along the river and I think north of Veterans Park. There is also a replica fort nearby.

I looked for this statue for quite some time. I was able to find veterans park, but no sign of the statue.

[Drew Anderson, 07/24/2009]

Doesn't look like the kind of statue that would be moved capriciously or easily destroyed. Anyone else seen the Voyageur, uh, voyaging?
