# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Pelican Palooza Photo Contest
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 09 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 am
- **Event Description**: Each spring, from March to mid-April, American White Pelicans (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) migrate northward, passing through Fox Lake. The pelicans often linger at favorable stopover sites in Fox Lake for extended periods to rest and feed. Flocks migrating through Fox Lake can number in the hundreds, as pelicans are highly social and travel in groups. 
 
The Village of Fox Lake celebrates this event with “Pelican Palooza,” a fun-filled two-weeks features a photo contest, art activities, and a scavenger hunt highlighting the migration and local businesses. This year’s photo contest is open from March 9 – April 3, and photos can be submitted online at https://app.seemylegacy.com/community/1987/campaign/8210. 

Public voting runs from April 6 – 15, and the winners will be notified by Parks &amp; Rec staff.
