Every year sees an amazing range of festivals that help make this the most fascinating small town in America! On this page we present the 2009 Wallace Chamber of Commerce Events Calendar. Many Silver Valley events are also included. Four of Wallace's festivals are large enough to warrant their own pages, complete with photos and forms.
