Drexel: For decades, this southwest Cass County burg has put together a celebration to rival cities five times its size. For miles around, even in neighboring towns, folks perch on rooftops and hilltops to watch Drexel’s annual fireworks display at dusk.
But actually go to Drexel and you’ll find stage entertainment, plenty of food and the traditional motorcross races during the day leading up to the nighttime pyrotechnics.
