This past year The Woods experienced the loss of a close friend. Dennis Roghair had This sculpture was done by Dennis in 2005. It is located Heritage Square been a part of the family here at The Woods since we opened our Maple Grove storein 1997. He was a very talented chainsaw carving artist and we are proud to showcase his work in our retail stores. Dennis lost his battle with cancer earlier this year and we wanted to do something to honor him and his work, thus “Roghair at the Fair” was born. The Minnesota State Fair displays 19 Roghair chainsaw carvings, so we decided to host a scavenger hunt for them at The Great Minnesota Get Together.
Here are the rules:
1. Find and take a picture with as many Roghair carvings as you can find.
