A former lumbering town, Hayward keeps its past alive with the Lumberjack World Championships each summer. However, fishing enthusiasts know it better as the home of the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame. The Hayward Lakes area has been a Northwoods vacation destination for generations. Year after year, people come here to enjoy the fishing and swimming, and to stroll the small town streets, stopping to buy a piece of freshly-made fudge or a pair of moccasins. It's also the "Golf Capital of Wisconsin!"
