Hackensack Chainsaw Event 

About

The sound of chainsaws will be reverberating through Hackensack, Minnesota September 23-25 as the 18th Annual Hackensack Chainsaw Event gets underway. The 3-day event, which takes place in Hackensack City Park, features chainsaw carvers from throughout the United States who will turn simple logs into works of art. The crowd can enjoy the progress as the carvers utilize their artistic insight and creativity to make sculptures from the logs.

As part of the event, there are food vendors and numerous booths featuring the work of several Minnesota artisans. There will be two auctions of the carved pieces - one on Saturday and another concluding the event on Sunday.

Sponsors of the chainsaw event include the Hackensack American Legion Family, the Hackensack Lions, the Hackensack Chamber of Commerce and the City of Hackensack.
